Windows 7 , which version works? (1.0.8.2/1.0.6.5 dont)

Post by schrader »

Hi,
Been using ultravnc for years , been using 1.0.2 under 2k/xp without issue.
Got a couple of new PC's running windows 7 pro 32 (embedded)
I have tried:
1.0.2 : connects to host ok , but window is black no input is sent to host
1.0.6.5: if I right click on something to open a menu it is displayed on host but not on viewer screen.
1.0.8.2: same as 1.0.6.5

I have tried installing them under the administrator account and also tried
NOT installing hte hook drivers to see if it makes a difference
but its the same.

Can anyone help me out ?

Thanks in advance
yutt

I've been trying to figure this out myself. I'm patiently waiting on a new release that fixes the problems with Windows 7, but it seems like few people have even tested it?

In addition to the above problems, Ctrl-Alt-Del is wonky or completely broken in Windows 7. I don't understand why something as fundamental as CAD support requires a 3rd party plugin.

close vncviewer
right click on winvnc system tray and left click select admin properties... enable capture alpha-blending on and then click OK
right click on winvnc system tray... close vnc connections

1. ctrl+alt+del for work with uvnc on vista/7
require cad.exe + schook.dll for windows vista/7

How is running your ultravnc server on windows 7 ?

* application mode (manually by user request),
winvnc -sc_exit (this allow user input continue/cancel security of User Account Control of remote user without break connection and wait.

* system service (running before windows logon/welcome screen)
send ctrl+alt+f4
UltraVNC 1.0.9.6.1 (built 20110518)
