Hi,
I’ve just updated all of the Big Screen Product Installers on
bigscreenglobal.com so they now support
Windows 7 (just tested on the Windows 7 Beta1 Build 7000 – officially released today).
These installers have now been tested/confirmed to work (without any special hacks) on all of the following configurations :
- Windows Vista Home Premium/Ultimate (32 bit and 64 bit)
- Windows Vista Home Premium/Ultimate with TVPack 2008 (32 bit and 64 bit)
- Windows 7 Home Premium/Ultimate (32 bit and 64 bit)
As before – all current Windows Vista + Windows 7 supported Media Center Extenders (XBox360, LinksSys DMA2x00, DLink etc) are also supported (and auto detected) by these products.
As per before – all registered (and trial) users can download these updated installers free of charge – and existing licenses/serial numbers will continue to work. (ie. no additional charge for Windows 7 support)
NB: You can double check you have the correct installer by look for the ‘D’ postfix on the file name (eg. BSWV2_R14D.zip). If you need to get the new file – just go back to the product download page on your bigscreenglobal account.
Also please note - Windows 7 Build 6801 + 7000 are supported (and tested) - however the interim build 6956 (leaked on BT - and never made officially available) is not supported due to some binary incompatibility on that version's Media Center API.
Enjoy - and let me know if any issues with installation.
cheers
Niall
