Altair camera driver problem

#1

Post by gfletcher »

I am having great problems downloading and installing the camera driver for my Altair GPCAM1 130m camera. When I try to download the driver from the Altair website it gives me a .ms file. I have no idea what to do with it as I cannot open it.
Can anyone walk me through the procedure please

Hi Graham and welcome

Altair somehow renames their files. I don't know why.
I think it's now on your drive as a xxx.ms_ file. You must rename the file to xxx.msi file, so replace the _ for an i.
Then it will be recognized and you can install the driver.
