    Vista 64 bit is working fine. Ihave had it running on my PC at home for months

    as far as i remember the latest .inf file from microchip works fine with vista 64bit.

    otherwise the link i posted earlier in the thread worked as well from memory.

    If these dont work for you let me know and ill find the .inf file im using and post it somewhere

    Scorpia, please post them!

    I have tried the official 2.3 version from Microchip but it doesn't work. I have a modified version of the code and lost the sources - made a custom graphic lcd - displaying text and/or graphics.

    If your INF can help it will save me a lot of re-coding.
    Thanks!

    Thanks, have tried both of them a big while ago, none worked, they put out some error that the hardware could not start. The error was the standard one that everyone got, something with code 10 if I remember correctly.
    Sadly I lost the sources and can not recompile using the new 2.3 version. The original project used microchip's 1.3 cdc release.

    In the mean time I took out the same project made for a serial port and just fitted a FTDI chip there but the speed isn't so great as with 18F2550.

    It will be a few days...I just got the dreaded Blue Screen of Death on my Vista box...which is where the source code is (of course). Once I get that sorted out I will send it to you.

    Would somebody be able to send me a hex file as well please (preferably for 18f4550, but I'm sure with google's help I can figure out how to modify it)

    First post sorry just wondering is this compatible with CrystalControl 2 software and will you be making a controller compatible with Graphic displays with controllers such as KS0108? Thanks

    Hi, I have a PIC18F2455.

    It has different amount of FLASH, for these reason the code must be adapted to this device.

    Is there any HEX to this device for?

    Can you send me a copy of source code? (I can modify it for 18F2455)

    Thanks a lot.

    PD:Sorry for my English.

    i hope i'm not bumping this thread=/ i have vista 64 bit and i was thinking on runing a gadget or winamp or something like this on a small nokia 3310 lcd. (i guess you've seen such projects). the problem is, i don't have a serial port, so i can't do that. then i saw this forum. i really like all of your designs! they're awesome =D. could anyone make me a PCB and program the PIC? i would pay you

    Works great for me in Vista x64 SP1
    :clap:

    The source code links would be most appreciated

    Keep the modding up

    EDIT:-
    I recently installed windows 7 (x64) beta

    if you follow the steps for a Vista x64 installation it works perfectly !! :clap:
