Well this is a laugh, I rebuilt my astro laptop today, Windows 7 64, PHD, Nebulosity, all the QSI and QHY Drivers etc.
Also I got a Brightstar OAG and set that up as well and the system is out there imaging at 2 Meters. I also put bobs knobs on the scope, a new dovetail and changed the dew heater.
The only thing that has not worked is a) the USB-Serial driver so I'm using the handset and a guide cable and I don't know what filters I have in the wheel! Oops.
Anyway, I guess at least I'm imaging again.
Cool - nothing like changing everything at once & jumping in at the deep end - but knowing you it'll be a great image......
As usual I can't be 'arsed....' :-( Out all day & didn't get time to set kit up in daylight - too much hassle in the dark when I haven't imaged for 3 months or so... I know I will regret it tomorrow when I see all the images...

Looking forward to the result ...
Well because the only guide star I can find is near the middle of NGC2175 that's what I'm imaging 2x2 or 1.12 arc/second per pixel...
But with a field size 24*31 arc min its not all going to fit in!
