I will be buying a laptop soon , but I have an old desktop a hp 3200 32 bit I know it is not very powerful. I hook up the camera on it and ARC shuts down , is this because of the 32 bit or should it run?
No it isn't because of the 32 bit.
What are the specs on the HP3200? All I can find is a printer. Also what OS are you running? Any other programs on there? Any other hardware connected?
I am using xp I have only 1 gig of ram and yes there is A lot of harware hooked < printer ,5 .1 surround sound wireless hub and a 80 gig hard drive full of music
Impossible to diagnose the issue without seeing the PC.
You said when you connect the camera ARC shuts down? How does it shut down? Just closes by itself? Any error messages? Is it only when you set up the camera control or when you plug in the USB dongle?
The message says that ARC has encountered a problem and will have to shut down , sorry for the inconvenence
Sorry it is as soon as I click on whe camera
Can you give a better description of the error message? Is there an option for more details with the error message?
When you say as soon as you click on the camera, what do you mean? When you click to add a control, then camera and add the camera control?
If you intend to use this PC solely for ARC after you get your new laptop it may pay to upgrade the OS to Windows 7 Starter, it should run fine (depending on the CPU speed and number of cores etc). Using XP restricts the voice recognition (i.e. it's not supported without extra fixes). This would probably solve the other issues also. If you don't plan to be able to wipe it clean then if you give more details on the error message (a screen grab of the error message may help) and confirm I've understood when it happens I'll see if I can figure out the problem.
Just out of interest, what version .net framework is installed?
I would upgrade the memory to 3 gig or 4 gig depending on the slots you have windows xp if you are using it only see's 3 gb of memory
I had that same problem while back with a PICO design mother board its only uses 1 gb of memory and cant upgrade it
But the PICO does work great for other projects i have
It was a video processing power for mine,it was while back,when i got my first EZB and wanted touse my PICO board PX11000G ,ALSO HAVE PX10000G too,one runs at 1.2 ghz and the other at 1.O ghz
EVEN AT 1 GB of memory you internet might be slow too.
My dads computer has that problem was 2.4 ghz at 1 gb of memory when i added more 2gb of memory it worked fine,if not my dad having a problem its my 2 sisters having a problem or other in my family,always call on me to upgrade or repair thier computer,and my girlfiend too ,till i bought her a really good fast one I3 core a t 3.0 ghz , WITH WINDOWS 7,doesnt really like windows 7 but came w ith the computer
Windows XP can see a lot more than 3Gb of memory. 32 bit can only use 3Gb of memory (although will still see it all).
1 Gb of memory is perfectly acceptable. There are robots on here which use netbooks with Windows 7 starter and 1Gb memory and have no problems.
