[QUOTE="vk3heg, post: 600212, member: 71614"] If your going to be running both the server and client on the one machine, then you might as well setup a windows (xp/w7) machine to act as the server/client. Ie: single seat setup, with both the server functions and client on the one machine. It'll make life a lot simpler. The only issue's with this type of setup, is that the frontend/client sometimes gets lost/locks up. If the fromt end can be killed (have had to do that here a number of times) then the server part still runs and the front end can be re-started. That's one of the reason's why I'm looking at going to a distinct server/client setup. It also means that the client dosn't have to be powerd 24/7. I have been testing a setup here, with XP pro installed onto a 8gb flash card, and writes turned off. It works really well, and even comes out of standby fine. [/QUOTE]
