Hello,

I have an x64 Vista driver for an AVR programmer
(visible as a virtual COM port), but Win7 refuses
to use it after installation (despite my explicit
approval during installation), because it has not
been certified. So in the Device Manager the device
is visible, but inactive.

Using extreme means (namely, switching Windows to
test mode) I am able to remove that "protection"
and then my device works correctly, but it can hardly
be called a solution. So, what should I do in order
to make it work the "normal" way?

	Best regards, Piotr
