All help is appreciated. Not sure if you are still searching for an answer to this or not. We had one of these in the lab that had not been used since 2003. I was trying to set it up today. First problem (1): Installation would not start because it failed the test for operating system, even though the specified computer was running an edition of XP.

Solution, Intel's website still had updated software for XP. I was able to install it using that. Second problem(2): Kept receiving 'Microscope is not connected to computer (80).' Short answer solution, the usb slot it was plugged into wasn't reading the microscope. Longer explanation of solving problem 2. In the manual, it tells you to (a) Don't plug the microscope, install software first.

(a) Restart the computer after installation. Programma dlya formatirovaniya fleshek sandisk. (c) Don't plug the microscope in until the Windows Desktop appears. (d) Download and reference Livevid.exe (Live Video Helpfile) for the Intel QX3.

When I got up to (d), I found that the file no longer exists. Intel removed it, and the only search hits were for two bogus download sites. I did find another Livevid.exe for an Intel CS430, but I never gave it a try since I discovered changing the usb port worked for the microscope. If you know that you have different usb ports, some higher speed some lower, perhaps try them? I didn't expect that to work, was actually done in order for me to fit another flash drive above it since the drive wouldn't fit below it. Afrojack no beef download 320. Final remarks, from most of what I read on this, starting with Intel's document statement of them stopping support for this in March 2002, most users I found that have had a problem with this has been since the emergence of Service Pack 2.

I am suspecting that the computer I'm currently running it on does not have SP2, because it's never been connected to the internet. All driver updates I do manually by downloading them and then moving them over via flash drive. I hope that what I went through helps you, but I also suspect that unless you have a computer running pre-SP2, you're out of luck on this microscope.
