Microsoft Kinect Camera not appearing under Primesense in Device Manager (Win 7, 64-bit)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to see the Kinect Motor, Camera and Audio under Primesense in the 
Device Manager but instead I only see the Audio and Motor. Microsoft Kinect 
Camera appears under Microsoft Kinect.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I have Windows 7 64 bit. 

Please provide any additional information below.
I tried using Zigfu to install with the above result. Then I tried installing 
the OPEN_NI_NITE (32 bit) installer from this site. The book I'm following for 
the kinect said to install the 32 bit version of it even if I have a 64 bit 
system so I did without modifying the result. I then tried the 64 bit version 
without changing the result either. In none of these steps did I uninstall the 
previous 32 bit versions.

Thanks for any help,

Mark

I actually figured it out. I used the website 
http://www.openni.org/downloads/opennimodules.aspx and downloaded the 32 bit 
unstable versions of the middleware and hardware binaries, OpenNI from this 
site and then the avin file from https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect and the 
Kinect Camera is available. 

I now have other issues so I'm curious to see if it works for you after.

Fixed this problem. You need to pick the driver manually.
Device Manager > Right Click on Microsoft Kinect Camera > Properties > Update 
Driver from Driver Tab > Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick 
from a list of device drivers on my computer.

If you follow above step, you will see two different signed by.
Select Kinect Camera instead Microsft Kinect Camera certification.
Click Next, and you are done.

happy kinect

I have the same problem on windows vista home premium, 64bit, I opened device 
manager to update the camera, when I browse to pick manually it shows only one 
option which is Microsoft camera, I tried the same but browsing to prime sense 
location, once I select it, a dialog box comes back saying that the camera has 
already the best driver, it shows Microsoft driver
