64-bit windows vista + hondata s300

Post by Annihilator »

Someone please tell me they have made this setup work. I didn't even think about it when I bought the laptop, I just liked the nice stats on it, and now I realize that the 64 bit versions still have compatibility issues. I know windows supposedly has a compatibility manager, but it isn't in the control panel where they say it should be.

Thanks
- Steven

Our software and drivers work with Vista 64 bit.

Ok so do I have to do something special to get it to work? I just tried the most recent non-beta version of Smanager as well as the beta version, and they both come up with this:

Unable to execute file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SManager\Smanager.exe

CreateProcess failed; code 5.
Access is denied.

...sigh.

Check that your anti-virus software has not disabled or deleted SManager.

Thank you so much. I uninstalled AVG and it works great now. I'm going to try and see if I can install AVG after the fact and it still work, but I should be able to figure it out from here.

edit - for future reference if anyone else has this problem, just go into your anti-virus program and make an exemption for the SManager directory, wherever you put it on your hard drive. AVG works fine now, and I have hondata too! :)
