Hi

I don't use CCP2 but I do use ControlMyNikon for my D7000 - so I took a look to see if that s/w supported your D2X. It doesn't, BUT it did suggest this for older cameras:

"I have Windows 7 with a D40/D40X/D80/D200 and it won't connect. Why?

These models have older drivers and Nikon does not provide a Windows 7 driver for them. However, you can get it to work by setting the compatibility mode to 'Vista SP2'. Just right-click on the shortcut, select properties from the popup menu, compatibility tab, and then select compatibility mode to Vista SP2."

So it's possible by running CCP2 under a different compatibility mode (VistaSP2, or maybe XP) then it might work for you.

Usually you do this by locating the icon of the app you want to run, right-click, select properties, then on the window that appears select the 'compatibility' tab. There are options in there for running the app under a different compatibility mode.

Hope that helps.
