Vista x64 and Canon 1d

Ok.. on sunday last week my computer died on me. Which is not normally a big deal because I used to teach computers at the College of Southern Nevada for about five years so I am really good with computers.

My old baby was a really nice and I had an intel raid set up. Well some of the data was lost( because I didn't feel like looking for month for an intel raid controller motherboards to replace it)

However I moved to X64 Vista, I got a quad core computer that is over clocked and running really nice. I was a bit scared to try vista again. I used it about a year ago and was very unhappy with it, however this time it is much better.

The install is SUPER Easy,it detected and installed the correct drives for my new motherboard, raid, video card, and everything else. I didn't have to install or update ANY drivers.. I was shocked..

Also.. most of the things work REALLY well.. Photoshop CS3 works.. Encore works. ( i had to re-transcode a video from HD to non-HD for a friend) and it is JUST SUPER FAST..

However.. the one thing that i'm dieing to get to work is Canon Drivers for my Camera. It can't do anything until I get the drivers to work in x64.. i can't change any of the setting in my camera, and I just feel limited until I can get the firewire / ieee 1394 drivers to work..

OHH.. mad..

Meditation

Sometime landscape pics can be so much stronger by adding a simple element of human nature, an expression of why or who we are. We create these great National Parks to relax and to get away from the crazy world we live in. However when we go out to shoot the National Parks we never include this in our photography.
