Isn't a Spyder 2 a datacolor product? I use my Spyder 3 on a Windows 7 64 bit system with no problems.

If all else fails it looks like Argyll CMS has support for Spyder 2 and can run on x64 Windows. You may have to compile your own x64 version though as I don't see any x64 binaries.

Datacolor has an update for 64 bit Vista and Spyder 3 Pro, I downloaded it from their web site. I don't know why they wouldn't have one for Windows 7 unless it's too new. If you can't find it on their web site contact them, they've been good at responding to my email questions.
