sdr-radio and hd-sdr should both work.
Both worked on a vista laptop.
ME was after vista, was it not?
I really like both of thos programs with sdr-radio my main pick.
ME was before Vista and XP. It was a cobble of 98SE and several very bad dreams. Although the SDR-radio software will work with XP, recommended for current software version is Win7 64 bit. I think hd-sdr requires XP or above.
When I ran ME on one machine years ago, I got the "blue screen of death" at least once a day. It wasn't very good.
