hahaha i knew it was something like that.

It was abit of a pickle to load to Vista 32 Bit

1. Insert Webcam into USB Device

2. Windows should detect the drivers (don't try and search yet)

3. Download 900NC drivers from Morgans site

4. Download wrmac onto PC and install

5. Locate the 900NC.BIN file via google

6. Transfer the 900NC.bin file to Wrmac/Binaries/8116 i beleive.

7. Load Wrmac and DS Select Interface on top toolbar and select connect.

8. Goto Binaries in Wrmac and select save as.

9. An error might occur which is what mine did "runtime" code

10. Control Panel

11. System

12. Should have an Exclamation Mark against the USB device.

13. Reinstall/Update drivers.

14. Browse for drivers yourself

15 Have Disk and type c:\windows\inf

16. Select philips and the 900NC driver should be there.

17. Install 900NC Drivers from morgans site

if none of this works let me know, but this is the process of what i done, unsure why Wrmac crashed. but after when i went into control panel 900NC device was there wierd?

iv'e just brought the SPC 880 and installed and flashed the software to 900, the only issue i have is with the focus. I attached the webcam to my 8' 200p dob tried looking at the moon with outthe IR/UV filter, but using the 2x barlows lens and it looked like a white blurry image.

I tried reducing the focus on my scope outwards direction but still blurry image, im using Wxastrocapture software. Is this to do the gain and brightness on the software

Iv'e read somewhere that i should focus the moon using the 10mm Eyepeice and then adjust the gain / brightness to get the right image. I have ordered the IR/UV cut filter from morgans in the meantime.
