Re: Running 2013 DVD Kit for win7 64bit?

I don't seem to be having problems installing the updates on my 64bit Windows 7 laptop.

Can you give some info on the error message or however you know that it won't install?

Yes, in 2011 FIRST started letting teams use computers other than the classmate.

This was true during 2011, but since last year, you no longer need to have a "Driver" user on your laptop, so no, you don't.

Probably not, seeing as a monitor would need a power source, and they only let you plug in your classmate behind the driver station, so this doesn't seem feasible.

Hope this helps.
