g-day.
Have tested on PC inside which is 3GIG MHZ, 1GIG Ram and 80GIG HD.
and everything works okay,as long as usb extension leads are not used.
The laptop is running on mains power and have tried serial mouse as well but to no avail.
The USB port on the laptop is only USB1, so I am using a PCMCIA Card for USB2 connections. I have a 4 port Powered USB2 Hub. but if I plug the powered hub into the pcmcia card PHD can't find the camera.
Barb bought a 5 met USB2 Active Extension Cable yesterday from Dick Smith and the camera fired up okay on the pc inside ,even with me adding another plain 5 met usb extension cable making it a 10 met run to the scope. - But again not if I connect the powered hub.
It seems that laptop wise we need to purchase another laptop with a more power.
