I had a problem installing the latest version of S2P on a new dualcore
dual video card build. It would not see my spyder either. I ended up
using the old version to get going. 

Last night I was trying to get my OS to keep the classic XP desktop
look, for some reason it wanted to reset to the newer XP look when
ever I restarted. I tried loading the latest version of S2P again. I
got a couple of error messages, but I finished the install anyway.
Surprisingly it was able to recognize the spyder, and the program
started. So I will see if the new version is buggy or not today.

Loading the latest version seemed to fix my reverting desktop problem
also. I will know more today once I start using it.
