Have problem with working VIA HD Audio CPL on Windows 7 64 bit. After installation of newest drivers from VIA Arena (Vista 64 V6.60c), I can't run HD VDeck program.
After every restart of Win 7 the HD VDeck is trying to load but it can't. When HD VDeck is runing I get info that "VIA HD Audio CPL stopped working", and have no acces to setup panel. I was trying to run HD VDeck as administrator and Vista compatibility mode but still the same message "VIA HD Audio CPL stopped working".
Did anybody was trying this drivers on Windows 7 64bit???

I just posted a reply to another Thread where someone was having issues with the 6.60c drivers under Vista. He went back to the 6.50 drivers and they work fine.

What build of Win 7 are you running? The latest I hope? And remember, Win 7 is still very much BETA. That means that stuff is not going to work, right? If it has drivers for Vista, it should be fine with Win 7, but I can't play any of my Open GL games on Win 7, so not all is true.

Use the "Bug Report Tool" to send MS a bug report about these drivers. Then maybe VIA will get in gear, VIA tends to be "behind the curve" with releasing drivers for a new O/S. Chris.

I have Windows 7 build 7000, and of course feed back with this problem was sent to MS.
Till now I haven't any problems with drivers or software (I installed only software that I knew from Win 7 Forum it works).
It seems that VIA driver v6.60c works fine (I have sound from headphone and speakers), but can't run HD VDeck program (VIA HD Audio Deck in Control Panel).
During the installation I get no info that something gone wrong. Maybe there is a conflict with one of existing Windows 7 process or program???
I was wondering if someone using Windows 7 has possibility to open VIA HD Audio Deck or get the same message as me.

Well, hopefully VIA is working on a solution. As the other Poster did, if you send MS some feedback about the VIA Audio Deck not working, MS will "nudge" VIA and get things rolling.

Keep in mind that Win 7 isn't going to be officially released until October, and VIA usually lags behind with driver support. Chris.
