Windows xp was created by Rich griff
Just found this bit, would anyone have a copy of xp please.

Need xp to make my printer scanner work, and for car, pugplanet2000.

Also I know there is some software when rib shape entered, spacing and span etc, it will draw the ribs for a tapered wing...

Also is there some software that will reduce the thickness of a scanned rib, the thickness of the line.

When ribs scanned and enlarged, the line thickness goes wide. Software to reduce thickness of line ?

Else I will do it the old way which takes some time for differing ribs etc..

Thanks, all help greatly appreciated especially xp.
Thanks: Klipkopwildlife

Rib plotter - look up profili, you have to buy it, I've not seen a free one.
Win XP, no - I've got an ME somewhere, if that's any good.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

As I understand it to be able to scale a diagram to any size and maintain the same line width the information has to be stored as a vector diagram. In other as a series of points which are joined by a line. The width of the line is independent to the point coordinates. You can scale the point coordinates and the line size will stay the same. CAD works like that.
Unfortunately most are diagrams are 'pictures' so everything gets scaled.

No, mate - ME is the one before XP, an 'improved' version of 2000, which had more bugs than a termite nest, and THAT was the one after W95.

Rich, I have several copies of XP, love it, I might be able to send it to you, but our Postal system is very unreliable!

Do it now, you may never get another chance

Oh wow, I need xp to run pug planet diagnostics for the troublesome 306 hdi.

The pc that had xp died along with all the stuff on it, and the dedicated laptop for pug planet 2000 only needs a fresh xp install and pp2000 install.
If you had a copy of do, could you price up how much it would cost to send to North Wales please.
Is your petrol down there dyed red/pink ? Caltex maybe ?

Xp on the other laptop would mean I can get the scanner/printer to work as well.

We don't have a land line or internet and am doing this on an internet phone.

Don't go out if your way for this during these covid times

There is no rush

Stay safe

That's just the updates and patches, Klippy, not the full programme.

Aha, I was looking for an iso which is a full disk image you can download, then I could just PM Rich the activation code! As usual I didn't RTFS!

Even having the ISO is no guarantee, I've been trying to load Linux from one onto a laptop running Win 7 for ages, it goes almost to the end of the installation then tells me it can't install and reverses the changes because there is a missing .dll file......computers! :angry:

Stay low, Move fast, Trust no-one....

Try a forced format of the win 7 hdd, then download linux.

Not to worry, will continue my search for co.

The pc that has come in the hard drive but died, hopefully no killing the hard drive.

Maybe I can connect that hard drive to an other pc ( which I don't have ) and run xp side by side its own hard drive ?

I assume that's possible but don't have a clue how to do.

The pc that died has an inbuilt video card on the mother board. I have been trying to get a video card to plug and play but the machine is so old ,( old, I am old ) that cannot happen.

If I can sell some stuff then I can save to get a new pc, but I know that that will die, so it goes on...

I will manage the old fashioned way that is reliable but a bit slow.
Such is life.

The printer scanner will not work via windows 98 or Linux so a dead end.

I used to do all internet, printing and scanning but the libraries are all still closed.

Dam computers, servants or master's ?
