Default Windows 7 x64 Home Premium works with Readydriver Plus

I allready use Gbridge on my Windows 7 x64 Home Premium laptop for a few months without problems, but it took my quite some time to figure it out how to make it work.
I've read in the forum that other people have tried also without succes (for Home Premium), so finally I decided to post my solution to give just a little help.

To use Gbridge without problems just install Readydriver Plus (free) on your computer. What this program does is that it automatically selects disable driver signature enforcement from the boot menu. It doesn´t do any unrecommended registry hacks or mess with UAC as other programms do. So, after you install this, you will see the bootmenu everytime you restart your pc, but just for a few seconds as it automatically selects the correct options.

The link for the file is: [url]http://www.citadelindustries.net/readydriverplus/[/url]
It is not the official homepage, because it went offline.

I cannot make a guide for Readydriver Plus, because I installed it a long time ago but I remember it was very simple and worked from the beginning.
Regards.

Default 7 not 64bit headache..

Step #1:
Best way universal is to DL you're favorite verison of GBridge(whatever works best for you). Then before you install make sure to right click on the install icon-> properties-> Compatibilty (tab)-> then select the XP sp3 mode (if you run windows 7 any verison) and at bottom select open as admin.
(Side tip: save this installation icon for future gbridge installs that way not to forget if you use multiple configurations)

Step#2:

Then after installation is complete. DO NOT OPEN GBridge to set anything. You must goto the GBridge folder in your program files directory and do the same options for gbridge.exe as in step #1. Set to XP sp3 mode and open as admin. through those exact pathways. This way any shortcut icons you use for gbridge are set to automatically open in this way.

This helps for future 7 compatibility errors and future headaches of getting all the way across town to find out that gbridge has incurred an error and you cannot view or connect. You may have to do all of these steps for your specific unit, you may install and everything works perfectly out of the box; but again this is the best universal method for multiple OS.

We tested gbridge on windows 7 Home Premium without any hack. Did your select "install anyway" during driver installation? Although Gbridge driver is not signed by microsoft, we signed it with gbridge's verisign $$ certificate.
