I have a windows 8 laptop that does fine with MX980. A client has an old 950 I am trying to tweak up for a secondary room, but it does not connect. I have only done a single 950 in my life, probably 15 years ago, and of course with a different laptop. Do you know what the secret sauce is?

There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions. |

Might only work with Vista. I had a 950 years ago and that's what I used with it. Might try to do a compatibility mode with it, if your computer has that option.

I still use the Mx950, went from XP to Windows 7, and although the editor worked fine, the USB driver would not work. In the end I kept an old XP PC I had and booted that up when I needed to update the remote.
I suspected the virtual XP mode of Windows 7 might work, but as I had the old XP PC never tried it.

I believe the issue is the MX-950 (and MSC-400) only have 32-bit drivers. So they won't work on a 64-bit operating system.
It should work in virtual XP mode, or any old 32-bit system.
