Thanks I’ll do that in the next few days. I don’t have it on my person. And it’s not a built in feature right?

Hi, in our XP version of Micros and Res, there was a folder called “Scripts” and one of them included a feature to email reports nightly. Thanks to a lot of great help here, we’re on Windows 10 and a latest version of the POS system. But the email reports script doesn’t seem to work anymore...

I got amazing help from cherifbj and I can’t recommend him enough. Thanks to all who have helped me here.

But I’m getting some help right now so it might be fine anyway!

I appreciate that and I did try every exe file.

Hi myu thank you for taking an interest! When I try to use disk2vhd, i get an error that it’s not a valid win32 application. But I can find no alternate version to download and use. And sorry, what is the version of what?

Hi I have a question for myu0516 And f4rid, namely you have tried to help me (see my last couple of posts) and as I’m stuck trying to upgrade the micros database so I can move it from XP to Windows 10, I was wondering if we can hire you as a consultant and perhaps wiht your expertise, get me...

Hey guys Any ideas? I’ll pay for your expertise if you wish. Thanks for reading.

Hi i'm trying to update 4.9 to 5.x thanks to your help here. i've hit a roadblock. The res install files i found here don't include the mcs script. i found that in antoher thread here. When i apply it in Database manager i get errors. here's from the dm.log. Anyone know what's going wrong...

“I would install RES 5.7 and fix the Autosequence issue using Resource Hacker.” Can you explain this to me please?

Oh i see, i update the database first. Sorry, correct me if that’s wrong!

I have FINALLY made a bootable clone. Now to upgrade. XP to 7 first or do these updates/upgrades first? I’ll check in with you via email also. Thank you.

I’m having a tragically hard time with what I thought would be a straightforward step. Can’t get XP cloned external drive to start up on a new computer or even the original computer. Not sure what to do now.

Hi Oh yeah for sure. Definitely not doing anything with the original computer on it last legs.

Ah thank you for that clarity. That also means I can presumably get a copy whenever I’m ready. Sorry for the question, but does this make sense? 1. I upgrade windows on the clone PC at my desk. 2. I go to the original XP machine and run the script, to get the freshest possible copy of the...

HI again f4rid, for the life of me I don’t see how to PM someone. Thank you for the guide.I’m wondering about the best order of business regarding the total upgrade path. For example: Upgrade Micros first, or Upgrade Windows version first? Or does it not matter? It looks like the manual...

Hi I don’t see an option to private message you but I saw on your profile where you ask us not to leave email or number, so I’ll try to obfuscate a little bit and use a custom email: techtipsguide at gregx dot co (not .com) So excited to see the guide! thank you so much!

Hi f4rid Sorry, I made a real mess of that post. Yes! I was doing some searching and reading here, and I thought I had read that the server computer and the POS’s had to be on the same OS. If one or all can be upgraded, yes please! I left the jalopy XP machine at his bar and brought home a...

Update: we just had a chat. He really wants to stay on the Micros system, because he and his staff know it so well. So unless there’s a homegrown type system specifically meant to emulate it, I think we’ll stay in Micros but look to upgrade. What’s the best and latest system for a bar with two...

Hi Tek-Tip Gurus I have a friend with a bar running an XP computer running Micros 3700 and Res 4.9, and two Micros POS systems at the bar. As an IT person, I’m trying to help him with a looming problem. This micros 3700/Res 4.9 machine is on life support at this point. And as you might imagine...
