That's not true in general, but I wouldn't be surprised if the e200R installation procedure specifically has some issues with 64 bit windows, yes.

Theres actually a 64 bit driver included, so it looks like its intended to work on a 64 bit system.

64bit Windows refuses to load drivers that are not signed. I haven't checked this but I'd be surprised to see the libusb drivers being signed. So I'm not surprised it didn't work. You can disable signature checking on 64bit Windows but this has to be done during startup and (AFAIK) isn't permanent.
Furthermore, I don't think using e200rpatcher has been tested on Windows 7 64bit -- the e200r seems to be rather rare, especially these days. So e200rpatcher having additional issues on 64bit wouldn't surprise me, but since I have no way of checking this is only me guessing here.

Actually, I think there *are* signed packages of libusb out there somewhere, but I expect the copy we have isn't. I don't remember where I saw it, though..

Is there a solution to this other than using someone else's computer. Up to that point I followed the same procedures with the same results. Could not find usb busses. Drivers already updated. Can not get to Firmware unlocked.

Yeah see bluebrother's post. Either disable signature checking or find a signed binary. And I guess hope the installer works at all on 64 bit.
