Tethering 500D with EOS Utility?

I have an older laptop loaded with Win7-32bit, USB2 ports, and 2gb RAM. I decided I would use it to try tethered shooting.

I've loaded the EOS Digital Solutions Disk, v24.1 and then plug my 600D/T3i into the USB. I then get a message saying that the driver could not be found.. Going into Device Manaager, the message says that drivers are not installed (Code 28).

I've tried downloading the latest/greatest Digital Solution from Canon USA and I get the same message. I thought I'd try here before spending the next few days emailing Canon back and forth looking for a solution.

Anyone have any ideas as to what I may be overlooking and/or missing?

DOH! That should be a 600D! (or T3i)

Canon's website says that no driver is needed. I've never had any trouble with my 600D and Vista or 8.1, but they're both 64 bit.

Review this thread; the writer seems to haved similar issues untilmhe installed DPP. http://photography.tut​splus.com …on-and-others--photo-9669

Yeah, tried all that. No Joy.

Guess I'm going to have to call/email Canon. Wish me luck!
