Re: Almost a new owner.... Getting it through my thick head.

Ah good point chuck.
You do have to remote in to this computer (pretty much like all the other suggestions here). Windows 10 pro comes with Remote Desktop built in, which I use. You can also use

Re: Almost a new owner.... Getting it through my thick head.
Hi Brian,
I'm trying SharpCap 3.2, with a side order of Astro Tortilla.

They are out there, but in truth I just got lucky and was patient enough to be in the right place at the right time and jumped on it. I have been very lucky like that for many of my astro
