| Post subject: | Pro96Com & ThinClient |
I got a $45 HP t5710 ThinClient and a $40 LCD monitor off of eBay and after enough meandering through XP Embedded and fighting with the limitations of the unit, I got Pro96Com installed on it and running. I am noticing a few problems with the software. First, everytime I do anything with the mouse or computer (minimixe/maximize a window for example) the receive rate shown on the screen goes up clear to 400% sometimes and then back to 0% before finally going back to it's orignal, true receive rate. I let it sit, open another window or move the one I have open around, same astronomical, exponential rate of change in receive signal percentage. Secondly, I had affilations and stuff in the log and minimized the window or saved or something and went back to review and everything was gone out of every log. (Yes, I hit save of course before I did anything and what I had was saved, but the fact that everything disappeared out of the logs pisses me off.) If this a hardware problem or one with XP embedded or one with the software? I've never had a problem before utlilizing my 7 machine with a USB-Serial converted to run Pro96Com. My goal is to upgrade the RAM, upgrade the Flash Memory Module and put a clean install of XP, not XP embedded, on it. What do you think? |

I think the T5710 would be much better suited as an audio feed appliance. Pro96com would probably run better on an older retired laptop or netbook. |

Does it have Task Manger on it? Pull it up and watch the memory and CPU usage. |

Memory stays pretty consistent. CPU hovers around 75% with Pro96Com running and only really spikes to about 90-95% when I click the mouse on something or open and close a window. Receive rate on the other hand in the program...goes from 0 to 200, sometimes 400% before finally returning back to the real receive rate of about 85%. The software also has 150.200 as a control channel. :bsflag: Bug with XPe or bug with computer hardware? I was stupid enough to get a ThinClient with only a 800 MHz processor and 256 MB or RAM and 256 MB of flash memory. My compulsive shopping screwed me over again. |
