XP compatibility mode

Post by winger »

Has anyone tried running a 4.0 on a windows 7 system in compatibility mode, or xp mode? I am curious if the drivers will work. I will move to 5.0 when the sdk is available but for now I am trying to work with windows 7 with 4.0.

It won't work. Basically Win 7 and Vista are the same from a driver standpoint, so you need the Vista drivers. Only Scope 5 works in Vista and Win 7.

Scope 4.5 runs fine on win7 32bit, so i am prett sure 4 will run as well.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

I did succeed in setting up a pulsar card to run on windows 7.0 with scope 4.0 using xp compatibility mode. Cool.
