Odd. FLI integrated flawlessly with my MaxIM, CCDOps etc. Not a single issue.
The MaxIM 6 upgrade won't fix it - I tried MaxIM 6, and decided not worth the upgrade as it didn't offer anything of any real benefit (there is a 2 star guiding algorithm for PHD now too, so that negates the 2 star guiding advantage or MaxIM).
Sorry, its been a LONG whilesince I first connected my ML8300 to MaxIM, so I can't recall anything specific. I do ALWAYS change program attributes to run as administrator permanently, so that MAY have done it. You might want to maybe even try running it in XP service pack 2 compatibility and check - not sure, as I have Win 7 and it went in just fine.
Send me the camera - I'll return it ONE day. You can use my SBIG ST-8300C in the mean time
You should have seen the nightmares I had with QHY and Atik...
