CANnes driver -Windows 64 bit versions

[chiampo]

Hi, we use CANnes board since 2006 for our medical-radiology machine ( www.qrverona.it ). The CANnes driver works perfectly with Windows XP 32 bit , but we need to switch to 64 bit system ( Windows 7 64 bit). Our software manages a large amount of images and we can take many advantages from 64 bit system. The CANnes driver is very old. Can you compile a new version for 64 bit windows system? In case, can i offer my help to test this new version?
Sorry for request, but 64 bit driver availability became important for us.

Thanks in advance

First of all, thank you for using our CANnes cards for so many years now. I think that for a 64 bit Windows 7 system a totally new driver will have to be developed - it is not just recomipling the old one. This operating system has a completely new driver model which no longer supports WDM drivers. So this will take a larger amount of time. I will forward your request to our sales team for further discussion of this issue. Then we will come back to you.

Hi, There is already a driver for Windows 64 bit versions?
We just bought a 20k euros machine from olympus that comes with the cannes controller card and the latest driver seems to be for windows NT.
Thanks,
Henry.
PS. Trying to get any customer support from you until now has not been easy so far.

There are two drivers: one for Windows NT4 (which I think nobody will need any more) and a WDM driver (which works with Windows 2000 and Windows XP 32 bit).
The 64 bit driver is ready and working now, but still needs to be certified by Microsoft (as otherwise it will only work in Windows debug mode).

Thanks for your quick replay.
Do you know how long does the certification from Microsoft usually take?
Thanks again,
Henry.
