Aurora 8 driver won't start on Windows 7/8 x64

   Hi,

I just received an Aurora 8 for evaluation.

However, I'm not having much luck getting the Windows driver to start or work.

I've tried a Windows 7 x64 and Windows 8 x64 machine

The Aurora shows up as a device, but the driver always fails to start.  
On Windows 7, I force-installed the driver in the Lynx folder ltusbaud_x64.sys, but that didn't help either.  

On
 Windows 8, I have to run the LT-USB Driver in Windows 7 Compatibility 
mode, but it yields the same result as a true Windows 7 machine.

I've run the installers off the included CD and the latest I could find on the website.

The firmware appears to be 27, assuming I'm reading the panel readout correctly.

I've tried monkeying with the settings on the front, but nothing has helped.

	Oh somebody tols me that the current version of the LT-USB driver for the Aurora can be found here. For Windows 8, you will still need to run the Setup.exe program in compatibility mode for Windows 7. We should have an installer out just after the NAMM show that corrects the Windows 8 install issue (if not sooner). I also refer to this page to solve my problem, thank you everybody.
