I have Windows 7 RC on my netbook and I can't get the NXT software (version 1.1) to install. It hangs when the installer presents its progress bars and starts copying files off the CD. Does the 2.0 software work with Windows 7? By the way, RIS 2.0 (...) (15 years ago, 27-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Fantastic! Sweet set up. Everything looks so clean and tidy. Your set up is very nice. Looks like people will be able to get up close to your display to see how it works, rather than the caged industrial robots. Funny, don't be surprised if your (...)
