Stable FW Drivers for Windows 7 x64?

Post by tycho »

I have been getting BSODs with Sonar 8.3.1 under Windows 7 x64 with the 828MKII running the latest drivers available from the MOTU site. I was doing fine in Vista, but Win7 is so much snappier I'd like to stay, but every time I close Sonar I get a BSOD.

Is there an older version of the FW drivers that works well with win7x64 or do I just need to wait it out for an official win7 driver release?

Thanks

I also would like to use Windows 7 64-bit mode but I don't know what drivers to use for my MTP/AV (USB) and my Traveler (Firewire). If anyone knows specific drivers, I would greatly appreciate the info-

Thanks

I'm also searching for WINDOWS 7 X64 Driver for my 828 MK III. I tried the xp/VISTA 64 bits (1414) version. I receive "sounds" on my 828 but only on 2 channels.

After questions to service support by motu the answer was clearly:
We don't yet support Windows 7, we cann't discuss on availability, look on our website!!!
