Well I decided to try to install HPSDR/Mercury/Ozzy on my Beta 
Windows 7 box I built last night and the install all worked however 
the OZ4444y init bombs off the same was as described on Vista 
attempts lately.. I also tried running the init .abt for Ozzy from a 
command prompt and it bombed off same. It crashes the 
load_firmwareV1.1.exe module and keeps tying to restart the load 
unsuccessfully.
It says
"an error occurred: Object reference not set to an occurrence an 
instance of an object" then goes back to sleep then repeats just 
after the line usb_get_busses

It is not important to me to MAKE this work but thought I would 
report my attempt.... if any solutions were found in the Vista 
attempt.. I would try them but it looked like that did not work either...

I used the udbio drivers from the flex website archive installer of 
usbio.exe. I did have to load Dot Net 1.1 as it was not installed on 
the machine...
Dot Net 2 was installed by default as same in Vista thread....

This way not important right now but just soliciting thoughts and 
suggestions.....:-)
