Well: I was too impatient.

Things took a great deal longer than I had thought, so there are more
Vista details that I need to know.

Now have everything working perfectly: Vista did say that the
driver's publisher could not be recognised, but I gues that is standard.

Also: thanks to Michelle who has been writing off list concerning this.

Hi Bill.

You are partially right: found the file and have run it twice since
downloading. Looks like Windows Vista doesn't like it, but i'm

happy to await more advice.

All the best.

Vaughan,

The fine support staff at GW can correct me if I am wrong but if my
memory serves me correctly you should try getting the drivers from:

ftp.gwmicro.com/special/fsbrldsp.msi

If you download and run this file I believe that will install the

drivers for the display.

I don't know if this was ever tested in Vista.

It has been a while since I had to tell anyone how to do this so
please forgive me if this isn't the right answer to your question.

Regards, Bill

Hello everyone.

I hesitate to write this, as I am not certain that this is

something which GW Micro should solve, but just maybe!

I have a Focus braille display, and of course, it is well
supported by Window-Eyes under Windows XP. I cannot get Vista to

do anything other than identify the display, and I cannot get
Window-Eye to output to it. Under Xp and Window-Eyes, the display

was truly plug and play, and I am guessing that I actually have to
wait for Freedom Scientific to come up with a firmware

update. Don't really want to install a Jaws demo just to get the
display to work, so are there any suggestions that I can follow?

Thanks.

Vaughan.
