Hi Mark, I never bothered to ugrade with the PCI card but I certainly run CellQuest under systems later than 8.1. All my benchtops are running system 9.1; my Vantage runs 9.0.4 and I have a G4 running 9.2. I have used both CellQuest 3.3 and CellQuestPro on the Vantage so it does work (although CQPro does have a few glitches). As new BD benchtops, at least in the UK, seem to come with 9.1 installed I assume that BD should support that (but maybe I should never assume anyhting!).

We want to use it to drive a printer. ************************************************************************ Derek Davies Voice: (44) 020 7269 3394 FACS Laboratory, FAX: (44) 020 7269 3100 Cancer Research UK, e_mail:derek.davies@cancer.org.uk London Research Institute, mobile: 07790 604112 44 Lincolns Inn Fields, London, UK.
