Sent an email Sunday.  No response so far.  Going to be on Mars time next starting this weekend, so it could be a while before I get back to this.  




I had to use the linux firmware updater for mine using VirtualBox.

I worked where the Windows one was not working (.Net errors about bus object).

If you need help with the linux updater contact me directly by email as there is one small thing to do before you can run it.

But it updated my camera in less than 5mn and it now works in Astro IIDC

I got my cameras today.  I installed flycapture and tried to run the

Windows 7 in VMWare Fusion.


Flycapture runs the camera just fine, so I know the camera works.  I  

just can't install the update or get video to work in Astro IIDC.


Any suggestions?



Talk to PGR.
