The Cougar drivers pitched as being for Vista (2007_HCO_VISTA_64_RC1.exe) will work; just make sure you run the driver installer in Vista compatibility mode, or some things won't install properly.

Once that's done, you should be good to go, since it also installs Foxy. Optionally, you may want to also install T.A.R.G.E.T. if you prefer its increased programming capabilities.

Hi there! I haven't played with my THC for 5-6 years.
I Was about to install the software the old way until I find 2007_HCO_VISTA_64_RC1.exe

So no need to install!

#1 = Foxyv4.zip
#2 = Foxy42beta.zip
#3 = Foxyv4FSSP.exe

Bestregards: Wassmuth
