[Flexradio] Vista 64 Firewire Drivers

Ignacio, according to a phone call I had yesterday with Flex they told me that Power SDR will work fine with Vista 64 bit. It's just the Firewire Drivers that is the problem. And that's because it is an unsigned driver. Mark KB3Z ___ FlexRadio

So Neal in a nutshell it will work if you can get Vista 64 to accept the drivers if you can keep windows 64 from evicting it. I just wonder when one updates Vista via Microsoft whether that reinstates the evicting part of the progam. Mark KB3Z ___

Am very interested in buying a flex 5000a. But to my dismay because I have a toshiba laptop that runs Vista 64 bit that the Firewire Driver that the Flex 5000a uses will not work. I am told that because it is a unsigned driver that Vista 64 bit won't load it. Also, there may not be a

Hi Mark We have had several rounds of discussion on this thread so you might just search the archives about it. The driver is not from Flex but from the company that builds the firewire interface for them and they are not going to get it signed until early next year so we just will have to wait
