Hi !
I have used Argyll om XP, Vista, W7, whitout any kind of problem related
to the this .
I have also tried on a W98 ( or a Millenium, I dont remember ), some part
worked,
ex chartread, this machine served a spectrophotmeter,
but somthing missed to create the profile ( later whit XP, this machine
need about 24 h to make a profile instead of 15m ),
but it was ok to run the instrument.
There is one thing to observe: Add the path to Argyll/bin the global path.
It is possible from ex a separate dir write somthing like this
C:/..././::/::/:://Agryll/bin/colprof and it seems to work, but sometimes
it dont,
( Depends on the program, colprof is just an example ).
