Ive had a couple of similar issues where some 'smart' programmer tried to make their driver install OS version specific (Vista was 6.0 and win7 is 6.1) and they now say they wont install to win7 because you need to UPgrade your OS. must have been ok but there will doubtless be a flurry of new drivers when sin7 is finally released. why these driver manufacturers dont test them NOW is beyond me.

It was written with XP & Vista and not aware of Win7, so installing it the OS says you cannot use this at this time. My video drivers are fine and that was the problem with Vista. The install also finds all of the other stuff like audio, web cams, wireless and all of that came in no problem. I do have an issue with my DVD burner in that the SW that came with my Vista box will not burn a BOOTABLE iso image. It use to no problem. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer SQL Server DBA Web and Winform Development Independent Contractor Memphis TN 901.246-0159 [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
