Your post will probably produce a humungous volume of responses...I am getting in early (12:33 AM 9/28). I have been using several machines running WIN 7 both 32 and 64 bit with my K3 and have never had a problem making firmware upgrades to the K3, the P3, and to the XG3. Normally I use my 32 bit machine, a DELL XPS-420. I am replacing that machine with a DELL Precision T3500 and anticipate no problems with it. As a first suggestion, I would have your friend check his cables and the assignment of his COM port(s) in Device Manager. Things like this are very frustrating/annoying, but often turn out to have a simple source.
