Can original 1Ds connect to Vista?

[yuribox]

I could not find the driver.
Do anyone know? :(

The 1D classic will not go with vista it has to be a windows XP PC as canon have not supplied a driver for vista, sorry..:cool:

For downloading photos it's a card reader job.:cool:

Man... Canon does not support it's own camera after 8 years?
It is more for "personal function" setting than importing photos.
Thanks TTk. ^^

I run Vista, I downloaded the 1Ds WIA driver for XP installed, it works for me.

I have tried it also. I have seen somewhere that version 4.5 or so works but I could not find it on the net. I tried 5.6 but did not work. :(
Do you happen to know which version it is?

Vista 32 or 64 bit?

32Bit

I was asking the OP ;)

AFAIK it won't work on 64 bit. (From the 1D classic thread)

Won't work directly (i.e.won't install), but I don't think it's a kernal mode driver, so nothing to stop you from installing the safe-mode method.

5.5
I will try 5.5 and let me just hope that it works.
Thanks.

It uses Firewire (IEEE1394) to connect and Canon don't make 64bit drivers for anything including firewire drivers for the 1D, 1Ds, 1DII 1DIIn and 1DIIs. USB works on the 1DII but only for image transfer, you can't set custom functions as that requires firewire.

Been thinking ahead of myself a bit... Kept remembering the XP mode in Windows 7 thing rather than vista. In Vista, no 32bit drivers, in 7, you may be able to get 32bit drivers to work using a 32bit XP mode.
