Sprint media manager on Windows XP 64 bit / Vista 64 bit

« on: October 14, 2008, 12:20:42 PM »

OK, so apparently lots of people are having difficulty with this since this application was not developed to run in a 64 bit environment.
So, the developers at Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom provided us with "Compatibility Mode."

Here is what I did to get this application to work in XP 64, should be the same for Vista.

1. Download the latest Sprint Media Manager for Instinct.
2. After DL is complete, right click and select properties.
3. Compatibility tab, select "Run this program for: Windows XP"
4. Install

There, reboot and run!

Thanks, I will still sideload because it is simpler but I appreciate you doing the work to find this.

I would love to make mmccrore's a stickie but he really hasn't posted much anywhere else. Although his info is good, considering most of the people complaining about SMM not being able to work on Vista probably haven't read this new posting even with 67 views... I could be wrong it has happened before.
