Hi, I recently changed my laptop with 32bit system to a new one with Windows 7 64bit. After I installed Simatic Manager 5.5 and TIA Portal v13, I couldn't find CP5512 interface in Set PG/PC. I've read, that officially there is no support for CP5512 card on x64 Windows. But maybe there is a way to directly install driver for CP5512?

There is a topic on SIOS forum https://support.industry.siemens.com/tf ... e=Internet, with a message:

Hi everyone,

To go on with your solution, you just need to get the "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Siemens\Automation\Simatic OAM\Drivers" directory.

You should have an unknown network controller in your device manager that correspond to your CP5512 card, you can verify it by unplugging it, and pluging it again to control that the item disappears and the appears again on the list.

Then you just have to reinstall the drivers from the backup you've done from the directory above.

It worked for us on two notebooks (FujitsuSiemens) with Windows 7 x64 and TIA v13 sp1 upd5 / step 7 v5.5 sp4. The CP5512 was successfully recognized again in Step7.

But I couldn't find this directory on my old laptop.

Is there any solution to make CP5512 card work on Windows 7 x64?
