Hi, I currently have DVC2 512 but my laptop died and my new one has Windows 7 64-bit. What Daslight interfaces can I upgrade to?

Please note the following interfaces support 64 bit Windows operating systems:

DVC2 GZM
DVC2 128-M
DVC2 ECO

The following interfaces ONLY support 32 bit operating systems
DVC2 512
DVC2 GOLD

There will be new interfaces released to replace the 2 montioned above within the next year. Daslight will offer upgrade deals for existing customers

How much in GBP would an upgrade to DVC2 ECO from DVC2 512 cost me (in GBP?) and how would I go about arranging that?

Cheers

Infact this is a downgrade, the only reason the the DVC2 ECO supports 64 bit is because it's a newer design.

You could upgrade to the ZM for 349 euros (the ££ change daily depending on the exchange rate). You would get a 3rd DMX universe, an SD card to store unlimited scenes, multi zone(up to 5 scenes at once) and full access to the Virtual 3D simulator.

If you purchased your interface within the past 2 months, we can downgrade this for free, but you would lose 1 dmx universe and the stand-alone memory.

My DVC2 512 was bought 2 years ago. I don't use stand-alone, and don't currently use more than 1 universe, so it's basically a cross-grade for me. I can't afford 349Euros, for sure, but I'd be happy to pay something for the "downgrade".

OK, thanks Simon, posted off today. One more thing: could you post (somewhere appropriate on the forum) step-by-step instructions for installing the 64-bit drivers?

This should all be automatic in the latest DVC2 setup file release. Let me know if you have any problems
