Difficulties running ANT (Attentional Network Test) and Task Switching Paradigm

[David McFarlane]

Cíntia,

Do take this up with PST Web Support at 
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp 
.  The SRBox and PortDevice drivers with EP1.x do 
not work under Vista or Win7, but you can 
download updated drivers that do work, see 
Knowledge Base #3108.  That might help with your SRBox issue.

As for the Display error, as Mich already said, I 
think you get that error when you try to use a 
display resolution that your monitor or display 
adapter does not support, so you might have to 
fuss with the display resolution in your program.
