RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Imbedded computers

Have you been able to run Machn on a Mini-ITX board? I tried a
couple of years ago, but Mach2 locked up the PC totally. This was a 1ghz
with 1g memory using the VIA chipset running XP Pro. The mother board works
fine for everything else (I'm using it now for a office PC). There was a
second hand report on the Mach list that some one was able to do this, but I
haven't been able to find out who it was or what they did. Note; putting a
display board and disabling the on-board video made no difference.

It runs about anything a normal PC will run. Windows/Mach or Linux/EMC,
take your pick :)
