Hello all. I have ben using a Milltronics Partner 6 for quite some time. For those who have a 486, or the centurion 5 controller, consider yourself lucky. Mine is a 386 16 Mhz. Any way to the questions at hand. Yes you can get fastcam 1 to run in XP. Just do a google search for DOSBOX. It is a sourceforge free file. It will allow you to emulate a true dos environment and fastcam does run on it. Yes you do have to push Alt-F6 and Alt-F8 for program start and tool change options because the buttons on your operator do not exist. Oh, and I called Milltronics on friday, they told me that I can get an upgrade for the software for $600 or a new version for $900.
I hope this helps
