I know this topic isn't strictly Max, but I'm trying to install Synapse, so that I can use it for my project.

1st question - Does Synapse work for Windows 64-bit?

When trying to install the Openni binaries from the Synapse download, this messages appears -

'This installer has encounter an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2738'

So instead I downloaded all the latest drivers instead of the downloads from the Synapse page, and I have my Kinect working, but when I try to open Synapse.exe it says -

'The program can't start because OpenNI.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem.' (but Openni IS installed it's just the Openni 64-bit instead)

So finally, I uninstalled all drivers, restarted computer etc... and attempted to install Zigfu OpenNI bundle, thinking that it will install the correct drivers for Synapse to work until I received an error a few seconds into the installation-

'Setup Failed - One or more issues caused the setup to fail. Please fix the issues then retry setup - 0x80070643 - Fatal error during installation'

Been trying to fix this for days, but to no avail..
