Keith, I did as requested--installed Java v7 and then downloaded the AltosUI 1.4 from website. I got the same response when executing the 1.4 program--it wants to download Java 1.7 and then times out and terminates without installing the software. Please advise. Ed Chess

Head on over to the 'official' Java download page at java.sun.com and download java 6 or java 7 before starting the AltosUI installation and you should be good to go. The Altos download doesn't (yet) include the signed driver as I haven't finish verifying that it actually helps anyone yet. However, I suspect you'll want to download and install that piece *after* you install the AltOS package. -keith
