Are there 64 bit USB drivers? I cannot get Vista 64 to install the USB drivers that DIY gadget directs to.

Is there anyone using IR on a 64 bit system?

[Ube_Astard]

Is this a silly question and thats why no-one is responding?

The drivers for the USB I/0 are problematic even in the 32 bit version. Finding the right drivers is very difficult. There have been a number of polls here, to find out which USB driver is the best USB driver.

Since none of our software is 64 bit software, a 64 bit driver for USB I/0 should not necessary. 32 bit apps can run with 32 bit dlls even on a 64 machine.

As to your question, are there 64bit USB I/0 dlls, yes there are. Will they run with the current software, probably not.

I made the mistake way back when of googling delcom USB drivers to find a driver for my usb cable. It didn't work, because it wasn't the right version, and I couldn't communicate with my usb cable. Using the older one, that was referenced here cleared up all of my problems. If you are having trouble with the 32 USB using the IR, I'd make sure you are using the correct USB driver. If you are writing your own 64 bit app to read the remotes, try a download of one of the developmental Delcom 64 bit dlls, but don't expect it to work with IR.


Good Luck

I don't have any computers that use Windows Vista, all of mine use Windows XP, so therefore I have nothing to contribute here. I imagine that is also the case for a lot of other people.

Furthermore, very few of us know that much about the Delcom drivers.
