All our drivers and hardware can be used with Windows 7, both 32 and 64 bit. PCI and PCIe runs straight away. FireWire needs a small tweak.
Windows 7 seems to include at least three different FireWire drivers. As reported in other forums to make the Fireface (and others) run under W7 you just have to change from the incompatible default driver to the compatible one.
- Go to Device Manager, FireWire Contoller.
- Choose Driver, Update Driver Software
- A list pops up that (on our systems) showed three entries:
OHCI-compliant 1394 Host controller
OHCI-compliant 1394 Host controller (legacy)
OHCI-compliant Texas Instruments 1394-Host controller
- From these three select 'OHCI-compliant 1394 Host controller (legacy)'
- Install the latest FF driver...
