Frustrating night with IT

[kirkster501]

Camera wouldn't connect.  Finally got that working (computer related nothing to do with camera) then camera wouldn't cool.  Ditto (drivers issue).  Then filter wheel packed up, reconnect USB numerous times and auto-magically started to work.  Then PC crashed.  Rebooted, OK then problems with a reported virus....  Then dropbox started complaining.......90 mins later I just gave up and came in and went to bed.  Had been a long day.  Lovely clear night wasted.....   Doh......

Hi Steve,

Which one/all of the IT Gods did you upset. That is a nightmare, by the time i'd got to the PC crash I'd have summoned a demon and sold my soul to the devil just to get one image.

I really hope you get this all sorted out mate.

Hi Steve, yes, powered all up in the daytime today and worked a charm!  I wanted to make a start last night on Ha data on M33 with my TEC, the IT gods had other ideas, clearly...!

Ah the mysteries of computers, things work in the daylight and not at night, things work one day and not the next, you have my sympathy Steve, fired up last night and plate solving refused to work having worked perfectly last time I used it 

"Luckily" it went all misty so gave up anyway.
