Dear Magic1357,
I have tried installing Captools on my mother's brand new machine which is running Windows Vista 64 bit. I built the pc my self, it's running on a core 2duo E8400, so it definitely meets the requirements for this software. The problem is that I read somewhere you have to get IIS 7.0 on Vista 64 to see 32 bit extensions, there's a few steps I have taken but can't seem to do the last step which is to make a change to "ADSUTIL.VBS" By any chance have you come across this article -
http://www.captools.com/ctnet/help/index.html?ms_windows_64_bit_os.htm
"The only precondition for this functionality is that the 64-bit version of the Internet Information Service (IIS) must be configured to run 32-bit DLL type programs. The Captools/net Server Control Panel will normally run a VB script to perform this necessary configuration when you first install Captools/net."
1.) Open Windows command prompt. (Start | Run and type "cmd" and hit enter)
2.) At the prompt type : "CSCRIPT %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs SET W3SVC/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1" (without quotes)
3.) Hit enter
4.) Type "iisreset" and hit enter.
5.) Reboot machine. This is not required but is recommended.
THE PROBLEM is that I don't have adsutil.vbs and googling left me to dead ends. I can opt to install a virtual machine inside Vista 64 that is running XP Pro but that wouldn't be fun now would it? If you have any idea how to get past this hurdle I surely would appreciate it. Thanks,
