Samsung 226BW with 8800GTS - Magictune doesn't work

Used the Magictune software under Windows XP (32 bit) no problem. Have the latest drivers installed for both the Samsung monitor and 8800GTS card. But when I install and run Magictune (the 64 bit version) it says it doesn't work with this monitor! Any ideas?

Which cable did you use to connect the PC to Monitor?

Am using the digital cable and driver is set up to use digital rather than VGA connection.

You can't run x64 Apps on a Windows x32! Try getting a 32Bit version.

Oops, just realised his sig says Ultimate x64.. :P
but anyway this is quoted from Samsungs own support page (SAMSUNG’s Digital World - Monitor / Awards)

Quote:
MagicTune Program is an additional program for monitor products.
Some of the computing system installed either old or the latest video card can not be compatible with Magic Tune.
Please visit the MagicTune Website for technical support for MagicTune.
You could try here? : SAMSUNG’s Digital World - Monitor / Awards
