Re: [datacolor_group] Original Spyder on Vista 64

Thanks for saving me the frustration of trying to make it work. 
That puts a Spyder3 is on the shopping list pretty soon.
Just keep in mind that the advanced tools that you are used to from OptiCAL, moved forward to Spyder2PRO, and from there to Spyder3Elite; you may not be happy with the simpler options and lack of tools in Spyder3Pro, which is the midrange product.

Can the original Spyder be used for monitor calibration on a
Vista 64 bit PC with a ViewSonic VP2250wb monitor?  I’m sure there are all
sorts of reasons why the current hardware & software are better but is this
old Spy
der + new computer combination even possible?  I’m assuming OptiCAL
3.7.8 is the software to use.  This would be a temporary setup for a month
or 2 before upgrading.






64 bit was addressed in a late
update to Spyder2; development for the original Spyder had ceased years before
that. So there is no 64 bit version of any Spyder1 software.
