Winniemoo Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 I'm using 64-bit windows and it can't detect the netmd. I guess current drivers are not compatible, anyone else have this problem? Has sony released new drivers for the x64 windows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananatree Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 The Admin (Kurisu) has been using Win Xp 64 and reported that there aren't 64 bit drivers for sonicstage yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Well, not quite. Hi-MD units work with Sonicstage in Windows XP 64-bit, but the NetMD mode doesn't, so therefore, NetMD units as a whole will not work with Sonicstage in XP 64-bit. I may be able to edit some *.inf files for you to get things working - what unit do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winniemoo Posted June 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 ummm the MZ-N910thanks a bunch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Try putting this *.inf file within the *.zip I've attached in:c:/program files/sony/personal audio driver/You'll have to replace the one that's in there already. Restart computer and see what happens.[attachmentid=336] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winniemoo Posted June 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Hmm doesn't seem to workI guess the only alternative is to use dual-OS with 32-bit windows at the same time for Sonicstage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Possibly. I'll try messing with the inf again later and see if I can get it working for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4fingers Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 (edited) I am also having a problem with the drivers and when I try and install them off the disk it says they are not combatable with window x64 edition. I tried kurisu's edit of the driver and it installed without it complaining not being comabatible with x64 edition but it now comes up saying the driver is not working properly.Any chance of you having a look at it again or can we email the people who made the driver and ask if they could make a beta version for windows 64?Edit - It says "A service Installation section in this INF has failed" when I add it via Device Manager Edited July 4, 2005 by 4fingers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmin Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 I'm also desperately looking for a Net MD driver for Windows XP X64. Been almost a year since this topic was last discussed.Anyone noticed this discussion? http://www.planetamd64.com/index.php?showtopic=17880Could disassembling and recompiling netmdusb.sys work??I also bought HI-MD because I have lots of MD:s and I want my new portable player to support them. I actively use both NetMD and HI-MD at home and NetMD in car, I have a Sony MZ-RH10, MDS-JB980 and MD-XF5800 car player and I was really dissapointed when I saw that there's only HI-MD support available for Windows X64. I really hope this situation gets corrected soon, aren't Minidisc manufacturers (Maxell and TDK just announced a new line of MD:s) concerned about this lack of drivers on 64-bit operating systems??
