http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/winlogo/drvsign/drvsign.mspx "x64 versions of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 require Kernel Mode Code Signing (KMCS) in order to load kernel-mode software." More details: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/winlogo/drvsign/kmsigning.mspx http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/winlogo/drvsign/kmcs_walkthrough.mspx Driver is part of kernel-mode software. >From the above links: 'Using the F8 option. An F8 Advanced Boot Option introduced with Windows Vista—“Disable Driver Signature Enforcement”—is available to disable the kernel-signing enforcement only for the current boot session. This setting does not persist across boot sessions.' There are hacks to disable this Vista 64 "feature" permanently. But it is not recommended. BTW, why go for 64 bit? -- Xiaofan http://mcuee.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Openocd-development mailing list Openocd-development@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
