I tried with 32 and 64 bit progdvb, and none of then can activate my skystar 2... do you using BDA drivers?

Wich version of progdvb?

I installed last technisat win7 64 bit drivers and soft, without problems, but progdvb can´t initialize skystar2....

but I mean, 4.5.1 drivers installed manually from BDA folder inside zip driver file, without the software, or installed with the included setup?

If I do setup, then not BDA driver is installed, the SS2 is installed like a net device, like I had in widows xp...

I tried two ways with no result....

Thanks for your answer

If you use bda drivers ...you have to choose a bda device in progdvb device list ...

YESSSSSS!!!

Now it works, even with progdvb 64bits version...
But why don´t work with non BDA driver? I don´t install BDA manually, it fails...

Maybe a technisat driver fault.... who knows

Thanks

Edit: Just a question... Is there any config file that I could copy-paste from old Progdvb to new Progdvb folders, to get the satellites, positions and so on without have to do the motor configuration again?

You can install new version in old directory.

Unfortunately that don´t work...

Progdvb say the old theme isn´t right for new version, and as the progdvb I used was in windows xp, I don´t used BDA drivers... I used net drivers...

So the new version still say can´t activate skystar2, and I must choose BDA skystar2... and is without any lnb, motor, etc..

Well, Is the most normal think at the world, new versions needs to be re-configured, and more if you change the drivers, OS, and 32 to 64 bits...

I am happy because I have the ss2 working again, thanks for the help. :D

win7 64bit not device run sky star2

it should work anyway but acad will be installed into the "Program Files x86" folder.

Edit -
Probably WRONG. 32-bit version will not install on 64-bit Win 7 so probably not on 64-bit XP either but both versions ARE on the disc so it doesnt really matter.
