Migrate FitPC2 to Fitlet

Hello,

I have a FitPC2 controlling my observatory for several years now (Windows 7 Pro, with lots of special software installed), and am considering an upgrade to a Fitlet . No idea whether I could migrate my FitPC2 system disk or whether this involves re-building my system from scratch (something I would hate to do ...).

Any advice much appreciated,

Robert

I am glad to hear fit-PC2 works for you as it should.

I recommend migrating to the new fitlet2 if possible (Windows 10).
If you wish to stay with Windows 7 than fitlet is a good choice.
Unfortunately the system disk of fit-PC2 will not work with a newer PC. You will have to be re-install.

Thanks. Just to be clear: there would be no way to use a Acorns True Image backup of the system disk to migrate to the new fitlet2 disk?

No. Operating system has to be installed.
