Windows 7 Anyone - I'm using W7 X-64

[1kyle]

Hi guys -- anyone using Windows 7 beta

I've been using the X-64 version and Sonic stage works fine. I also use SB which is not supported by VISTA or Windows 7 but it works fine on a Windows XP Virtual machine running on Windows 7.

If you don't want to use SB and don't like Vista Windows 7 runs Sonic stage without problem and runs RINGS AROUND VISTA. (Both X-32 and X-64 bit versions). You'll have to download before the end of 24 JAn however.

Cheers

Thanks to you for your tip. This is just to say that SonicStage is alive and well on Windows 7 Beta 32-bit edition. I may try 64-bit later, but I take your word for it.

Some oddities:

a. I had to manually install the NetMD drivers from pa_audio.zip (from this site I believe) in order to upload NetMD with my RH1.

b. When I had done this, the installation wouldn't actually finish until I unplugged the USB connector from the RH1. After that it worked perfectly. So there may be some lingering problems although those could be not to do with W7 but the dual-core machine I am running it on.

c. The splash screen for SonicStage (normally blue) was grey. This has me puzzled, since all other applications seem to have the right colours and settings for the onboard video adapter this machine has.

If you have an explanation for c. I would be interested - meantime I expect I will eventually track down what's not set right in Windows 7.
