Hi All
Firstly would there be any benefit in reloading Thermwood control nesting onto a new drive using XP as the operating system
Secondly can this be done without having to change the motherboard

Ian I would guess that the PC in the controller is a little underspec for XP

When wanting to run WIN XP on your Thermwood control, there is more required to system then simply loading the XP software. You must contact Thermwood's Retro/Upgrade dept. if your wanting to perform this upgrade, to ensure upgrade is handled correctly.
