I don't know about the chip transplant, but...I have a 32 mp, has a celeron 1 gig processor, 80 gig HDD, added a cd burner that can transfer files to the controller at 115000 baud over the 422 port. I can dnc from the HDD as well.
You should be able to replace the entire motherboard, and processor if you want just get a motherboard with a 422 port, add whatever you want in terms of drives, usb ports etc. That route would be just as cheap if you buy from a big computer parts house. The new mini case motherboards would fit with room to spare.
As long as you have that penguin program you should be able to transfer files from the controller to the pc and vice versa.
No reason to run dos, load up windows 98 or XP. |
