CF-30 mk 2 win 7 pro 32 bit. Tried each version of the TB PC info and not one will install. Get this pc will not support. Or something along those lines. But it comes down to will not install. Even in compatibility mode or after trouble shooting. Wondering if will have to do an XP or Vista install first then upgrade to 7pro as I go. Yes tried all the versions in the index up there :lauging: Suggestions?

get the pc info download for a mk3 with win7
use 7zip to decompress the pc info exe file you downloaded.
then run the setup.exe file

Well none that all worked, need the misc file now and none those are working either. SO back to an xp install and build up from there.

The mk3 files will work.
I have done it myself. You need to unpack each downloaded file with 7zip and then install.

Everything that I'm finding is a executable. None start as a zip file Shawn. Example http://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/itn/driver ... html#CF-30

and http://business.panasonic.com/support-c ... hdownloads

They all are giving me executables except one which is a full on driver pack for PE. Like when the install asks for drivers as it installs windopes. But going to try them all again.

trust me..right click on the downloaded exe file and use 7zip to unpack the files.
The downloaded file is an executable zip compressed file.

Yep, Shawn is right. I use this method all the time to extract drivers for custom installs.
