| I installed Eq-100 on a fresh Windows 7. - working fine....... 1. Downloaded and installed Echolink. 2. Ran Echolink. 3. Ran Art-setup.bat as ADMIN ----- NOTE: if i run Art-setup.bat as a regular user it did not like it. - had errors. 4. Ran Setup as REGULAR normal user. 5. Ran Eq100 as regular user - just by double clicking... and it ran up fine.. .. NOTE: if i run Art-setup.bat as a regular user it did not like it. - had errors. |
Here is the website that has the latest version of AutoIt 3.3.6 for Windows 7. http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/downloads.shtml When the INSTALLER for EQ-100 tells you that there is a newer version already installed, you may want to keep the Latest and Greatest for Windows 7, rather than the older version included by me before Windows 7 was written. |

| I have had problems getting Windows 7 to do what I wanted it to do... I also kept getting the same ERROR CODE's.. This was the Solution I have found that seems to work... It involves Opening "ALL" Firewalls. Evidently, since EchoLink, MixW and ARTiE all hook together, they have to be opened up, even if they are on the same Computer. I do not use other Anti-Spyware programs like Norton, etc... If you do, then it is up to you to work around them. If you are building a remote base for others to use via EchoLink, then you must use this procedure to open MixW and ARTiE. EchoLink seems to work properly without any extra setup work needed. All programs needed to be run with "Administrator Privileges" on my W7 Premium Computer. Good Luck / N8AD |
| You can use this information to set up any program that needs to "hook" to other programs through your Windows 7 Firewall. MixW for Example needs to be opened up to connect to ARTiE's... If you are getting ERROR CODE 429's this will possibly rectify it. |
