this is true that you can do this, but i did not think of applying it to this situation, and if it works that would be awesomeHere is something i was told about win7 and 64 bit systems, i have not tried this as i dont have win7 or 64 bit but you might like to.
When installing drivers some wont work because if the driver is not registered with windows (microsoft) win7 will lock it out, but i am told there is a way around this.
On bootup if you press F5 or F8 or whatever key that takes you to the page that you can select safe mode etc from, at the bottom of the page there is a function you can turn off or select that will then allow the driver to be installed, from what i am told the operating system will revert back to blocking non approved drivers on next boot up but the previous installed driver will now work.
Im sorry i dont know any more details then this but if you care to have a look please report back with what you find out.
Maybe someone who if fluent in win7 64 bit can offer more input on this.
I am also told the drivers for usb/serial work on 32 bit in a 64 bit system so this method should allow 32 bit drivers to operate under 64 bit.
Hope it helps.
nope, i was really hoping it would work that time. Oh well, ill just have to shell out for a picaxe programming cable or one if the ones from sparkfun.

It's not his fault - it's just a running theme in the new forum and most times that it happens someone points it out and I had to get a 'piece of the action'.Double Quote??
Come on Nick the poor guy might have a stutter
Attach the LEDs/PCB to the bottom of the skateboard or attach the installer file? In the case of the former, bolts or clips will probably be best or in the case of the latter, change the file extension to .pdf and then you can smuggle it in and to run it users just have to change the file extension back to .exe.now i can have flashing leds on the bottom of my skateboard. im not sure how to attach it, but the name of the file is vista_installer
If I'd only known, I would have offered more help.now i can have flashing leds on the bottom of my skateboard
As a matter of fact I have seen Tokyo Drift. My son, now 17, brought it to my attention. However, I don't recall lights on skateboards. I guess its just a matter of priorities: I can only fit the important stuff into my brain these days.lol obviously you have never seen the fast and the furious tokyo drift because then you would know what i was talking about.
And now filled with the eerie green glow of night boarders.so its pretty big and pretty crazy
You need to have "Hide File Extensions for known file types" in Windows Folder Options disabled so that you see the file extension .exe, then click the file and press F2, then press the END key, then hold down SHIFT and press LEFT three times then press the p key followed by d and f then press ENTER. Your file should now be renamed.yes by attaching i meant the installer, but im not sure how to change the file type, as its an executable.
