NTI Shadow and Vista/W7

[captainiom]

I am using the bundled Shadow for Readynas duo and it works fine with my XP computers but fails regularly with both Vista and W7 even when run as administrator - although less frequently. The Win message is simply Shadow has stopped working with an appcrash and win wants to shut program down which it then does.
I cannot download an update from the NTI shadow page because the server gives a 500 not available error and I may have the latest version anyway as the Readynas is only a couple of months old.

Ideas please? (I could put a debugger onto the W7 run if this would help as I have Visbasic installed there with full debugging facilities).

The bundled version is not compatible with Windows 7. You would need to purchase an upgrade from NTI directly.

Noted re W7 but what about Vista?

I was going to recommend the NTIus.com forums, but it appears they are down right now: http://forums.ntius.com/

Maybe an NTI rep that views this forum can assist.
