Hi T G
Yes in think my main problem is just that i am not using the right operating system. Im trying to rectify that

I move my dish using a pace satellite possitioner which is all programmed for each satellite from 15 west to 42 east so i just type in the number and the motor moves to the sat,still think this is very cool

I did get a pop up page on mytheatre 2.76 asking for email and password (pretty sure i did even though its wrong operating system i was using at the time)
How would the diseq files for the motor work? i dont want to screw my system up as its woking ok with the pace programmer and im happy enough to put up with this. softc as in softc*m file u mean? or that other one softcsc or something? where did you get the updated transponder list? si it possible to also manually edit in notepad? is it an .ini file by any chance?
With this new s*ca 2 think happening im wondering which software will show the best support in the future, and i was thinking maybe the software that uses the yanktse may be the one as word on the forums talks of the guy who programs it maybe working on it as i type.
when i install xp i will no doubt have a few questions or it will be easy as you make it sound, heres hoping
ps. when you say chuck in the soft.c file where do you put it? in the main folder of mytheatre? or in the plugin dir or do you create the folder?
im getting confused because i am looking at several ways of doing this using several programs to get to the same goal and im getting muddled

but ideally i would much rather have this all running in win 98 upgrade 2 if possible but it aint working for me.
