Need HELP with the Fantom Drivers for NXT!!

[Stryker295]

So I set up a windows machine and went to the downloads page on the current Lego site. http://www.lego.com/en-us/mindstorms/downloads

This had a link to "Download the NXT Fantom Driver" http://cache.lego.com/r/www/r/mindstorm ... rivers.zip

However, whenever I download this and run it, I get an error! It's missing an MSI file necessary to install its own drivers.

Apparently there's a /Products/ folder in with with three installations: 32bit, 64bit, and 64bit support, the latter of which is supposed to run when you click Setup or Autorun.

However, the installer in the 64bit support folder is nonexistent. I even downloaded this on someone else's computer and ran it to verify—it seems the download itself is messed up.

Does ANYONE have the driver? I've gone through 3 VMs and 2 computers trying to figure this out and eventually realized it was a problem with the driver itself.

P.S. For anyone suggesting I install the other one, that doesn't install the Fantom driver, just a generic winusb driver that adds the NXT as an object for windows to recognize.

DIsclaimer: haven't tried to install any of these myself...
...but
Are you sure that the 64bit support folder is supposed to have it's own installer/msi associated with it. looking at the filenames they appear to be region/language files, possible used by the 'actual' 64 bit driver/installer?

Just a thought.

Download the driver and run it for yourself.

You've got me intrigued now.
Will try it at home within the next few days.

The error is simply that it's missing the MSI file from the path /products/... and points to the folder that doesn't have an MSI file. It then tells me to fix my configuration file. ._.

Try the download from the RobotC site, I think that will work (it is what we tell leJOS users to use).

Someone solved this in another thread, they had it stored on their computer and they provided a link (:
