content: HiI have a Lecroy DDA-5005 with a faulty hard drive. Unfortunatly I did not find a image of the drive so far. Since the device is obsolete I doubt that Lecroy will hand over the image, but maybe someone has cloned one?Thank you very much!

content: You shouldn't really need it. Get a new drive, install windows and take it from there. Just recovered a WP7300 in that manner, and it's documented somewhat in the thread in the test equipment section. Through the service menu it's possible to recal as well, though you want a separate partition for it (I think the defaults are FIRMWARE on C and USERDATA on D).Basically it's:Install XPInstall chipset driversInstall XStreamInstall XStream driversInstall touch screen drivers

content: Quote from: DaJMasta on November 21, 2019, 03:14:20 amWell I had a look in the thread but I cannot seem to find where to actually get the x-stream firmware and drivers?I haven't found anything on the Lecroy website as well. Do I have to ask them directly and hope they hand it out or is there a mirror somewhere?Thanks

content: Is that also a XP Embedded install?I was trying to get hold of all the software components to make a "rescue"disk for my LeCroy 454 incase of harddrive failure. I have everything but the xp embedded media.LeCroy wont send that.
