Understood. I will likely get a new laptop (Win 10) to use as my main astro imaging platform and relegate my 5 yr old Win 7 machine to a backup role. In the mean time, I will get the old XP machine up to date. It's a shame really. That 15 yr old Dell was so well built. I guess when you spend $3200 on a laptop it should be!

It should but XP is no longer supported by Microsoft so XP's useful days are probably numbered.
