It was running G1034C version C.03.00 on Windows 3.1
I'm not sure the exact version of the HPIB card since I haven't pull it out yet.
I've been able to load this version of the software on Windows XP and run it without a problem in the "off-line" mode. As far as the data analysis program (MSDA.EXE), there seems to be no problem with Win XP.
I picked up
this Vectra VL series 5 with a 200 MHz processor, 64 MB Ram, 2.8 GB drive, CD drive, & network adapter for $9.99 on Ebay...$34.98 to my door.
I'm going to try and and load Win 98 SE and see if it works. I'm choosing Win 98 SE because it supports USB and I'll hopefully be able to transfer data files using a flash pen drive.
I would've went with a faster Vectra computer but I'm not sure about the speed limits of the HPIB. I'll report back on whether this set up worked or not. Thanks for your reply.
