I have Hoster working on my Macbook Pro using Boot Camp and Windows 7 64 bit Pro. It seems to be working fine. I did notice a difference after installing Symantec. Just make sure you turn off all the virus checking/scanning stuff.....

Windows 7 is what I am now shipping at MTU. The main reason is that we found that it is STABLE. I have been using it on my Personal/Work computer and had no issues with it.

The major difference I found for Hoster is that on the Same hardware, my laptop, under Windows XP it took my system about 6-8 Seconds per song to run Remove Silence, on Windows 7 on the same hardware it now takes 1 second per song. Thats a HUGE speed up, in under the cover stuff that you do not see in Windows.

This is a main reason that we switched.

Didn't I read a post recently that Holster wouldn't perform well in Windows 7, 64 bit? It performed well in Window 7, 32 bit? Or am I mistaken?

You are slightly mistaken. That was Microstudio and it is because it can't write to a CD in 64 bit. Hoster works fine because there is no burn capability.

Thank you Dale for the correction. So Hoster works ok with Windows 7 64 bit?
