Supplementary Installation Notes
Windows Vista RTM (Build 6000)
At this point Windows Vista, Vista device drivers and software installation
tools and procedures are a work in progress. The Vista emphasis on system
security is going to be an improvement in the typical end-user experience, but
requires significant additional work for software developers.
Pre-release versions of Rawether V5.5.1805 (Build 1805) can be installed on Windows Vista
RTM (Build 6000).
Rawether V5.5.1805.1 MSI
Installer - x64 Edition
Rawether V5.5.1805.1 MSI
Installer - x86 Edition
Installation of this
software involves installation of device drivers on your computer.
Understand that running any
application as Administrator and installation of device drivers are ways that
malicious software can infect your computer.
You should not install this
software unless you have confidence that the provider does not have malicious
intent.
This install should work on Windows 2000 through Windows Vista, although it
does not yet have complete Vista support. Specifically, the Rawether NDIS 6.0
protocol drivers are not included in this release.
Rawether V5.5 Build 1805 will be the last version that provides sample
applications that can be built under Visual Studio 2003.
We expect to release Rawether V5.5.18.05 the first week of December,
2006.
Rawether V6.0 will sample applications will be built exclusively using Visual
Studio 2005 and the Vista Platform SDK.
