setting up oculus DK1 on win7

hello everyone,
I have an Oculus Rift DK1 which I'm trying to setup on win7 without success (drivers installation, I presume), I've searched on the website for references about DK1 setup but it seems it's been completely forgotten and the latest 1.7 runtime now complains about my hardware which months ago was perfectly good.

So can someone please refer which package is the last reported one working for DK1 @win7? I'm just interested in running older demos like aaaaAAaaAaaACULUS or Alone in the rift, thank you everyone

I don't believe DK1 will work with the latest software, but you can likely install an old Runtime and get it working. It depends which game you want to play, but the 0.8 Runtime would be the newest that works and you can go back from there.

Click the PC drop-down, then 0.8.0.0-beta.

thanks for your reply, unfortunately 0.8.0.0-beta requires win7 64 bit at least which I actually have not installed (it's 32bit version), as far as you know which one is the last running on 32bit arch? Thanks in any case for your help

Maybe 0.6 might work on 32-bit, it's hard to remember now.
