Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
Right now, I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate, however I would be VERY surprised if the drivers didn't work on even the most basic version of Windows 7.
The usual differences between Windows versions is just the software that is included with them and maybe some changes in the way users/groups/sharing/permissions is handled.
Time will tell though. Once the other versions become available, we can all test.

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
this is some good news, I will try this at home on Win7 intel I7 cpu and gigabyte x58 extreme motehrboard.
do you gentlemen care to share what brand/type of firewire card you are using ?
do I need to perform that trick still or it should work no problem ?

My firewire is:

Hope that helps you!

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
Thank you for taking the time to post your elaborate reports on how to get the drivers working on Vista 64 and W7-64, gentlemen, I appreciate it very much.
I would consider it extremely rude of Yamaha to simply ignore this post, ESPECIALLY since Yamaha ought to have done this research! So far all we see is Yamaha giving their customers the silent treat.
At the moment I am working with Vista Ultimate 64 without Mlan, but the moment W7 becomes available I plan to buy a license and get Mlan working in that environment.
Let's hope Yamaha does the decent thing and comes forward with a reaction, and hopefully updated drivers.

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
Texas Instruments IEEE1394 firewire interface here too.
And in case it wasn't clear, yes you do need to follow Shawn's instructions to get it all to work
BTW - I had a bit of an email based discusssion with the guy I mentioned in an earlier post from Yamaha UK, and he had forwarded my email pointing to this thread to Yamaha's R&D team, who were aware of it anyway. Don't read anything into that. It just means they are aware, not that anything is necessarily in development. The guy probably isn't at liberty to discuss any developments on the 64 bit mLAN driver situation, and indeed he didn't, but at least Yamaha do appear to be listening, which is a good thing.

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
I've spent a couple of hours trying to get this workaround to work on my Vista 64 system.
I've tried to follow your instructions to the T.
All goes well, but when I get to the part where I turn on MLAN and turn on my O1X, nothing happens. I get a tone indicating that the computer senses the device has been connected, but no dialog screens appear. I've tried changing the firewire port.
I am running my Quad core machine as dual drive/dual boot. I can boot off the XP drive (32 bit) and MLAN works fine there. I just can't get your technique to work by booting in with the Vista 64 drive and OS. Any ideas anyone?
thanks

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
Hello!
I followed your instructions as well, i am now at the point that "mlanstrm.sys" should appear... how many times shall i try to re-start the mlan-installer? I did it like 10 times, no file appeared. I'll try another 10 times, then I should buy a new mixer
Thanks for this great discovery and tutorial anyway!
Greetings
basti
ps.: i am using windows 7 rc1 ultimate with german language pack, connecting 01x to core2 duo with TI firewire-pci-card
EDIT: ok, after some weird driver-deleting & reinstalling action it suddenly appears to work. it took this steps:
1.following the guid from the first post
2.after hanging at the last pop-up-window i went to system control and deinstalled the drivers there
3. i signed all the .sys-files under Program/mlan/ an restarted
4. i re-installed the driver by manually choosing the right locations for the mlan-bus and mlan-midi
5. i switchted mlan on, and after some device-manager-blinking and restarting all worked out
sorry for my bad english

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
Hi Shawn,
Thanks for the instructions. Have you hooked up your i88X yet? If so, anything to add to the instructions (I have an 01X and i88X) that might help my when I try this?
Cheers,
jayson

Re: Windows 7 64bit mLAN WORKS (I HAVE PROOF)
I've tried the installation procedure on a Sony Vaio with T8100 core 2 duo on Windows 7 RC 64 bits.
When booting 7, I use the F8 menu and disable the control of unsigned drivers.
Then I've followed the recommendations.
Mlanbus.sys and Mlanmidi.sys both install in one pass and then I've signed them with the dseo tool. But mlanstrm.sys never install...
I can start mlan and see 01x and i88x in Graphic patchbay even if connection GUI in Graphic patchbay is defficient. Anyway I managed to load a config with many audio and midi connected in Graphic patchbay Under Sonar 8 64 bits I have lots of glitches, dropouts and it is not possible to use it. Seems like the communication on the 1394 bus is very hard.
Besides midi connections are not there and so not appearing in DAW even if present in Graphic patchbay. Means no way to use studio manager...I've tried any setup (low, middle or high) and not improving anything. It is also not a question of Asio latency.
Well could you tell me what kind of optimisation I can make to improve the situation until I can use it (if possible) ?
