I'm using it with XP, no problem, however to get the scan speed you would expect, you need something called Direct I/O. I'm not sure I understand it all but I...
You mean that to run Probe1k in Win XP you have to BUY more software ??? Just to run a DOS application !! Getting a little expensive and I would think that...
I am running PROBE 1K with a $175 Toshiba Libretto P100 and Winders 95. PROBE is just fine the way it is running in the DOS mode. Want something that run's in...
I don't think is is a issue with Probe that XP doesn't handle DOS bases software well. In order to bridge the gap between the short comings of the OS and...
Hi All, I wouldn't bank on it (after many years since I made DOS batch files) , but I think a simple DOS boot disk could do the trick. Not to talk about a...
Knut/ all, I use a DOS boot CD to start all my DOS based applications on my laptop (which normally runs XP / Red Hat). The XP partition is a FAT32 one as I...
Hi. New member here... ON another listserve I am on , a guy says he's got it working on an HP palmtop. I am interested in doing the same, with maybe a ...
Well be a bit more exact, what do you have in mind. I'm running PROBE/PROBE1K with a Toshiba Libretto which is about the same size as the ICOM PCR1000 itself....
Hi Ed- Basically exactly what you are doing. I don't use my PCR near as much as I could be, and if I made it more mobile, I surely would. I've been perusing ...
<Basically exactly what you are doing. Now if we can keep stirring up interest in older portable computers and radios maybe this area can expand in size. PROBE...
Well, I have been stirred up. Been using scanners and computers, although not together for a LONG time. Now my uses are different. I have had my PCR for a...
Last night I downloaded Scanner Recorder from an FTP site I found w/a GOOGLE search. It's a free program & it's been mentioned on this list & others to be able...
I am enjoying the use of PROBE, however, I do have questions that the manual does not cover well. 1..I cannot seem to get the color in my scan files to blink....
... Larry, if you could, e-mail me off list (so as not to bore anyone here) with your current settings for Direct I/O and I will compare them to mine and see ...
Hi Larry! For the BLINKING function, GOTO: Configure, then to Display, and there you will see the BLINKING enable. For all the settings of the colors &...
What a pain in the butt to use, I am running Win XP Pro and I use my serial ports with other applications and hardware and when I switch from Probe to the...
<< the bull about the DOS speed is all well and good if you have a 286 machine but using a Windows P-4 3Ghz I don't think the DOS is faster holds water...
Hello from a fellow PROBE1K user. I just joined the group and hope to get around to reading all the posts. The equipment I am using is P4 2mhz, Direct I/O,...
I read on some of the Probe info from an individual that they were getting 45-60 channels per second scanned. I have a 2.53 Ghz. computer with 512 MB of DDR...
... Are you not able to migrate to Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP because some of your existing programs need to access the hardware directly? A number...
Sounds to me you are having the same problem that I was having till I woke up. You have to go into DirectI/O and set DirectI/O to run when you start PROBE1K....
I am having a problem with setting lat & long coordinates. I have them set for my location as far as I can tell. I am having difficulty setting them for each...
Not at home to look at mine but try 085 and then the minutes and seconds. Not sure that it allows for + or - degrees. I am having a problem with setting lat &...
Just enter your longitude without the minus sign. Most map software uses negative longitude to indicate west lon, while positive values are east lon. Probe...
