I've been using this forum and site since my first Pronto TSU1000. A Long time. I've been compelled to register due to my recent experience with URC and CCP.

The board is filled with posts about USB drivers and other communication issues with our beloved remotes since the dawn of the boards. I've been suffering with Windows 7 64Bit incompatibility since the OS was released. I'm sure someone here can remind us how long ago that was. Lol...

I write because I'm truly frustrated. I would love to retire my laptop and VM. Wouldn't it be nice if URC gave us a new CCP that worked well across a reasonably recent Win OS? How dare I mention that I'd truly like to see MAC support, but that's another topic altogether...

Here's the configs tested and what worked and what (still) didn't:

CCP 1.8.112.0214 WIN7 64
MX-880-->failed to download [DS-S00] <--
MSC-400-->failed to download<--
MX-900 WORKS FINE

CCP 1.8.112.0214 WIN7 64 (PC#2)
MX-880-->failed to download [DS-S00] <--
MSC-400-->failed to download<--
MX-900 WORKS FINE

CCP 1.6.080.0802 WIN7 64
MX-880-->failed to download [DS-S00] <--
MSC-400-->failed to download<--
MX-900 WORKS FINE

CCP 1.7.098.1114 ON WINXP VM
MX-880 Works Fine
MSC-400 Works Fine
MX-900 Works Fine

CCP 1.8.112.0214 ON WINXP VM
MX-880 Works Fine
MSC-400 Works Fine
MX-900 Works Fine


So why would an MX-900 work fine on Win7, but not the MX-880?

Perhaps there is some magic I'm missing, and would love enlightenment.

Thanks all. Happy programming...
