Phidget Control Panel - No UI launch - Windows 7 64 bit
Posted: Sun Aug 07, 2011 6:10 am
Hello everyone,
I'm having some problems using my Phidget Spatial 3/3/3 in a Windows 7 64 bit environment.
I installed the drivers (http://www.phidgets.com/drivers.php) and connected the device to the laptop. The Control Panel detects it correctly and displays serialnumber and version (check enclosed screenshot). When trying to launch the UI by doubleclicking on the device, no further UI shows up.
The same unit works fine in combination with a Windows Vista 32 bit system.
I read something about third party software trying to interact with the device and preventing the Control Panel from accessing it. I tried to detect such software but the problem persists.
Any suggestions on solving the problem? Thanks in advance!
David
EDIT:
I noticed that Vista and 7 use different drivers. In both cases they are Microsoft based. Is there any possibility to get some original drivers from Phidgets to install them via the device manager of Windows?
