If you have lost install media but still have the key you should bve able to locate on eBay or the support boards for controls.Īlso in a pinch you can use Acronis to create a virtual machine, I believe the WIndows Virtual PC/Virtual Server 2005/HyperV can access the serial ports on the host if you still have a host machine with serial ports and you can run your software there inside of XP/2003/2008. Back it up with some reliable imaging program and consider moving it to NT4 then 2000 using upgrade installs rather than clean. DO NOT USE THE ORIGINAL DRIVE FOR THIS! Most of that old software would run Win98/NT4/2000. It really sounds like you have the old version of RSLogix prior to the Floppy license key - is there a dongle screwed onto the printer port?
You will have to drop out of the computer world and into the automation and controls world to find it. There should be transfer software available for XP for Allen Bradley/Rockwell and Cutler Hammer, not sure about GE/Fanuc. An older one is better for this like v9 True Image Workstation rather than Echo or newer.
