Thanks Liam.
Although in this particular instance I have a high degree of confidence
that the use of a VM (Parallels on an iMac running 10.11) and Windows 8.1
isn't the root of my problems.
I can download firmware to the Kryoflux and calibrate it successfully. I
can also pull raw flux transitions from the disc to a dump file, and watch
the histograms plotted in the GUI whilst it does this.
Had to pack the interesting stuff away this evening as I needed the space
for modern stuff (fully loaded C7000 BladeCenter for anybody wondering
exactly *how much* space ;-) but I'll have another go tomorrow morning if
the kids will leave me alone for long enough.
Apologies for the top-posting in my other two replies to the list. I did
it without thinking as I'm using the Gmail web interface.
-Austin.
I've hooked it all up to a Windows 8.1 VM
A *VM*?
Oh, come on. Be serious. If you're troubleshooting hardware, use
hardware. No blasted VMs. I'm amazed anything worked at all via a VM.
Also, 8.1 is relatively speaking obsolete and unpopular. I'd suggest
W10 as it's a free download, for the rest of this month at least.
