If your goal is to upgrade to a modern computer, the best option for you is
to install a linux OS (ubuntu for example), create a virtual machine, install
CentOS 5 / Win XP and TS1.3. It should work flawlessly.

Actually I heard the final system will react faster because of the benefits
of a modern CPU/GPU.

This way you'll have all security updates, your IT will be happy, you
can share the data partition over the network, etc.

But still stuck with the old TS1.3

Dear Nadia

Topspin 1.3 pl10 is the last version of software that can be used with a DRX console.
The most "modern", but also out of support, OS is CentOS5.

Newer operating systems have not been validated with this vintage of hardware.

Your instrument was produced in 1997 and we ended the sales of DRX consoles
in 2002 and provided official support until 2016.

Sorry

Clemens

HI everyone,

Good day!

I'm currently running TOPSPIN 1.3 on a Windows XP operating system with a 400 MHz Avance DRX Console.


  1. I know that when this was installed in 2008, TOPSIN1.3 was the highest
  version which could be used with the DRX Console. Has this changed and is
  it possible to use a newer version of TOPSPIN with the DRX Console?
  2. If the answer is no to Question 1, can TOPSPIN 1.3 (Windows or LINUX)
  be installed with a newer operating system?

I will appreciate hearing from anyone who has more experience with this or who
has tried to upgrade their software with older Avance systems.

Thanks in advance. Have a great day!

Best regards,
Nadia
