    Just wondering, have you tried running just the EFI live software with out the V2 hooked up? Here is what I would try. If you have any custom tunes, save them to a different file besides the EFI folder, like a regular documents folder. Then completly uninstall EFI from the HP. Next download the program directley from the EFI website (not from the cd) and install it. Then see if EFI will run in demo mode. If it does, then hook up the V2 and see if you can update it with the latest firmware and what not.
    I would try running EFI and getting that completly updated first befor hookinh up the V2. I'm running windows 7 and not having any problems.

    I had to do a restore and they started to work again, but I fear when it happens again. its due to the newer drivers. you need older drivers.... since MS bundles with the newer drivers, there you go. BAM

    Use the EFILive USB Manager tool to uninstall the new driver and install the old driver.

    At least I did that and it worked the first time... the second one, only a restore fixed the issue.
