#1

Post by p1taylor »

Hi, I have had to get a new laptop to run my Meade RCX 400 10", I have used XP up to now with Meade Autostar Suite but the new laptop is 64 bit, but the Remote Handbox will not connect to scope is there a way to do this, going to night vision dos not help.

Is the telescope on a LX400 mount?
Some nice refractors, eyepieces, mounts and related equipment

Hi All, I have got every thing going as it was in XP, I got a UGREEN USB to RS-232 DB9 Serial Adapter and Winaero Classic Themes for Windows8 and select XP Classic Themes sorts Meade Autostar Suite out, so every thing is OK on a new Windows 10.
