Minitaur 101 - Windows 10

Hello,

what is your recommendation concerning upgrading windows 7 to windows 10.
It is advisable / are there any issues with windows 10?

This for a Minitaur 101 (dual core version).

Thanks,

Harm van Dijk

Hi,

using DEWESoft with Windows 10 should be the same as with Window 7 in terms of general use, the are however two downsides:

1. Macros in sequencer don't work

2. Smartek GigE filter driver is not fully supported yet (it should be added in the near future)

Hi,

is there some news on this topic? I would be interested to know if Windows 10 is fully supported on a Minitaur 101 (dual core).

Thanks,

Harm

Definitely It has some issues with windows 10. I have already experience this. Not only that my taskbar won't hide in fullscreen. Manitor 101 has not working at all, it is better to use another version of windows.

Hi, and thanks for your response. I am told that there will be no Windows 10 drivers for the Minitaur 101 and that the internal memory (2GB) cannot be expanded.

We will stay with windows 7 on it until the device dies.

Best regards,

Harm

The form factor of instruments with an internal/integrated PC is nice, but due to incompatibility of these small PCs

with new MS Windows versions after a few years I avoid this and always use a seperate IPC for DAQ systems.

So my recommendation is: never buy a DAQ system with an integrated PC unless there is no other way!
