Spyder 2 Suite and Windows 7

[barrypriddis]

Am I right in thinking Spyder 2 Suite does not work with Windows 7, and is the only alternative to purchase Spyder 3?

Hi,

I use Spyder 2 express on windows 7 with no problems at all, you will need to download the drivers from colorvison..

I have the spyder 2 as well - no problems on W7 64bit

Thanks for responses.
I seem to have read somewhere that Spyder 2 Express is ok, but not Spyder 2 Suite.
If I can just download a new driver, could you supply the link Greg?
thanks

Suite is fine.

works fine on 64bit windows7. I think i needed to DL a software update

it works on W7, but may not calibrate properly if you have a wide gamut monitor

 

[EOS_JD]

Why would it not calibrate properly?

 

[unclened]

i think the spyder2 cannot handle the range of colours that the monitor displays, so you get an offlooking calibration. I had to upgrade to spyder3 when I bought my dell studio laptop

Don't think that would be the case, to calibrate the colours are set by the spyder scanner and software it uses and maps to those - the additional colour your monitor displays do not matter.
