Intergrating CCDSoft and TheSky6 in Windows 7

[thunderchildobs]

I have two problems, I think they are related from other posts I have seen.

1) In CCDSoft when using the Move Focus buttons on the Focus Tools tab, I get the following message.
"The attempted operation requires TheSky Level IV and it must be running."
Error code = 224 (0xe0)
I am using "TheSky's Focouser".
When using the Focuser Control window in TheSky6, I have no problems.

2) When using a series of orchestrate scripts, (slew to object xxxx, take image 60), the images were previously saved as sequence number.object name (ie 1001.ngc1234), now the object is saved as sequence number (ie 1001).

I didn't have these problems when running on a laptop with XP. The problems have started since I have moved to a new
laptop running Windows 7.

I have found and tried the following.

I have run TheSkyIntegrationChecker and launch TheSky Version 6.
TheSky 6 does not start but I get the message
"Undefined error: -2147221005 (800401f3)"

CCDSoft V5 v5.00.205

Orchestrate 1.00.040

Can't help you specifically with your problem beyond I use a 64 bit Wins 7 laptop (i7 with 4gb ram) and Sky V6 and CCDsoft and it worked fine.

Is your laptop 64 or 32 bit? I think that may be relevant. You may need the latest 64 bit drivers.

I found out that I needed to turn off UAC, and now everything works.
