Unfortunately I ran into some problems with the software in Windows 7 x64...
AVR Studio 2.18 installer hangs just right before it starts copying the files. No hints, just an empty screen with the installer icon on the taskbar. Tried it a few times without much luck.
It turns out I needed to "login as the administrator (username)," and not just "have administrator privilages" and/or have it "run as administrator" or be a standard user. Beats me what's the difference between the administrator securities, but it worked, and I can run it normally under my usual username afterwards.
Second issue I had is with the driver not being installed. This was just a simple matter of going to the Device Manager, clicking on the (!) device and letting it update the driver. If it doesn't pick up the driver automatically, point it towards the AVR Studio installation directory as it does contain the signed x64 drivers for Windows 7.
Tried it with an ATtiny13, and it works - woohoo!
nice post....thank for your information
