I'm running vista on a new laptop, when I try to run max msp i get this error message:

"User privileges insufficient to start a low level driver"

since I am totally unfamiliar with Vista, I have no idea how to change my "user privileges". My 'user' is the administrator, yet I keep getting authorisation errors like this elsewhere also e.g. when i try to copy a .dll file into foobar's components folder.

Does anybody else successfully use max/msp & jitter on vista, and if so please can you help? (or do i have to wait for max 5..?)

MaxMSP 463 runs fine on Vista. I turned off all of the user account managing stuff, perhaps this is the cause of your issue. You might need to play with those settings a bit.

If you're still stuck with it then drop us a line in support and we'll try and recreate your issue.

my error, i just needed to restart it would seem ^_^
