Will cisco clean access agent work with windows 7? -

I just installed the beta version of Windows 7, and am now trying to install Cisco Clean Access Agent to access my university s network. I keep getting a message saying quot;the client version is old and not compatible.quot; Any way to get around this?

Beta means unsupported. Drivers are only going to work if you are able to find them at Cisco s website. I doubt it very much.

The compatibility attempt did not work for me; build 7000. Please, if anyone can figure this out post something up or email me. Report Abuse

I have no problems with my copy of build 6933, have you downloaded a pre-beta? However I did have to hack the resources to make Cisco Clean Access Agent think I was running Vista, however there is a better way. 1. Uninstall Cisco Clean Access Agent. 2. Right click the installer and select Properties. 3. Select Vista RTM as the compatibility mode, under the Compatibility tab. 4. Run the installation as an administrator. 5. Run the application (as Vista RTM too). It s easy! P.S. Windows 7 is not legally beta, it s pre-beta!

Sorry man, Windows 7 is still beta. A lot of things are not going to work with it, even when it is released next year. Looks like Clean Access Agent will have to wait its turn.
