Meade LPI and Vista

Postby Lar on Thu Dec 27, 2007 10:45 pm

AutoStarSuite.Net has a fix. Vista recognizes the Meade LPI as "Trust Webcam 14823" NOT Meade LPI. Takes a little trying to get all (19 or so) the name changes in the Registry editor.

Meade LPI and Vista

I forgot to mention the two downloads. Follow the directions at AutoStarSuite.net. Can get both from HP site, but have to search for two dates for Vista updates, not a problem at all. Windows has the first one, but the second they will E-Mail you as it is still being worked on. They have a Beta version that comes with all the warnings. Have had a couple of lock-ups while "dicking around" with this set-up. Probably should do a thorough read of the instructions.
