As Microsoft has decided to end future support for the Windows XP operating system, I would like to know if there is a version of the Nanoscope (v7.x) and/or NanoDrive (v8.x) software that is compatible with a newer version of Windows. Simply disconnecting the systems from the internet is an option for security, however that path is not necessarily desirable from a usability standpoint. Any information is greatly appreciated.
Hi Adam,
Thanks for your question.
Yes we have Windows 7 upgrade options for both NanoScope and NanoDrive controller based AFM systems.
Full information is available from your local Bruker Nano Sales Representative who will contact you about this.
Regards,
Thomas
As far as I know at the moment, Nanodrive 8.03 based systems aren't any compatible with Windows 7.
To be able to run run Windows 7, we would need to purchase a Hardware Upgrade for the Controller. (We got an Dimension Edge AFM) At least, that's what Bruker Germany Support told me when I was asking for it. Can you confirm this?
To be honest, as we got this AFM for barely half of an year, that actually isn't an exemplary well Software-Support IMO (Especially as the EOL of an 12.5 years old OS isn't that surprising...).
Agreed. We did full NanoIII to NanoV and MM upgrades in mid 2012, and now would need to spend 5 figures to upgrade to Win7. In contrast, we have upgraded our Agilents to Win7 ourselves, no problem.
