    Micros 3700 POS EOL December 2019

    Oracle would like to EOL Res3700 but with such a big installed base it's not so easy. They are coming out with a Simphony-lite type product and hoping that takes over the restaurant market but as of now no plans to end Res. What does end is Win7 Pro, next January, and Win7 embedded 1 year...

    Micros Workstation 610 32-bit OS to 64-bit OS

    The Win8.1 WS6's are 32 bit hardware and will never take a 64 bit o/s load. They never made a Win10 image for that hardware, they updated the guts of it to 64 bit and did a Win10 version. They still sell the Win8.1 32 bit model also because a lot of Simphony customers have still not upgraded...

    Convert A MICROS PCWS 5A w/ HDD and Win?

    Final bios is Q2012F which someone just posted on this board. There should be a version that runs from a thumb drive, or else take the files and put them on the root of the cf and reboot, then remove them from it after the update runs. Shouldn't have to remove doc or anything like was suggested.

    Convert A MICROS PCWS 5A w/ HDD and Win?

    Micros used to sell a kit for this, the hdd mounted to the back of the lcd, I suppose you could use duct tape in a pinch :^). Sata cable was standard but power was custom, not sure how you would sub for that. They had a POSReady 2009 and a POSReady7 image for them.

    Help Micros e7 - no help from North Country Busines Products

    Oracle E7 release 4.2 was broken and caused major customer issues, probably why upgrades were halted. 4.4.2.1 was released a few weeks ago and fixes the issues. I would get a standalone reader from your cc processor and then figure out what you want to do long term.

    WS5 RES Compatibility

    4LX has same basic innards as WS5 just in a smaller package. The WS4 otoh is a dodo bird.

    Micros KDS disappearing and reappearing tickets

    Sorry I don't know but I will say after reading about 50 posts here today that when people ask for help with Micros it would be a good idea to give version of Res, type of WS (4/4LX/5/5a/6) and any other relevant info. It makes coming up with answers more likely.

    Micros POS 3700 terminal Suddenly shuts down.

    The WS4/4LX power supplies fry because they are all 12+ years old at this point. I have a customer who insists on keeping his 4LX's running, constantly spending to fix them but can't get parts. All I have for parts are 12+ year old pulls which later die because they already ran for years in...

    Micros 3700 workstations freeze on printing function

    Can you confidence test from micros utilities? If so you have a software not hw problem. This trick worked with a similar issue at some sites in the past, assuming you are dealing with WS4/5/5a not WS6: On the WS where printing fails, rename the SYShardwaresetup.dll to .old and re-cal the...

    micros 3700 and Epson Kitchen printer

    If it's real old/been in the kitchen a long time the mech inside can get gummed up and just stop/jam. You either have to get a tech to take it apart and clean it or just replace it. Turn it off, hold the feed button and turn it on, keep holding the button until it starts printing. After...

    MICROS 3700 4.8 to 5.7 upgrade problem

    Going from 4.x to 5.6 or higher does require preconvert, not sure why it would fail if you have done that step. I've seen the same issue but it was due to not running preconvert.

    Micros KDS WIPE (reset Controller)

    Can you hit the winkey to get the start menu, then get to control panel? From there: Save Settings Icon, Default settings tab, check the reset box and hit ok. This is like doing a wcf on a ws4/5

    MICROS WS6 win 10 image, domain controller, and boot to other device

    I have used the Oracle images to repair units, they work. I don't know of any way to use a custom image - I tried some various imaging software without success but one customer of mine claims to be doing just that using Macrium software.

    mxap, Glad you figured it out, been a few years since I played with that config and I remember it was fussy. Sorry I'm not in here very often to answer questions. I found one other reg key dword to add, per some older instructions, not sure if it's necessary but here it is...

    MICROS TABLET 720 WITH 7 INCH DISPLAY, 2GB RAM, 64GB FLAH, WINDOWS EMBEDDED 8.1

    The Oracle 720 is a DT Research DT317BT, the 721 is a DT317CR. You could maybe find a distributor to sell you the DT tablet for less. Any Windows device can theoretically work with Res but making everything work is the trick.

    Micros Workstation 5 Not Starting Up

    It's a common problem with the WS5 and I don't know of a permanent fix. I usually try two things: 1. power drain - disconnect power and all other cables, wait a few minutes, reconnect and reboot if that doesn't work, try again while also re-seating the cf card. If you're still stuck try: 2...
