And yes, it uses virtual devices. A friend sent me a link to this page- <https://www.bartneck.de/2017/06/08/using-your-lego-mindstorms-rcx-on-a-modern-computer/?fbclid=IwAR0LuYuY3kZjmJYQy5mP7A1VPbQsuUhOX2J6__ZU9l62xe5QY8EU-FA9e10> The page gives a walkthru to set up a virtual device, install XP in that virtual device and then spool up the RCX software and the IR tower I tried it a few times now and it works. I now don't have to worry if my old WinXP laptop dies. I made a vid shoeing the walkthru- <https://youtu.be/RgiFoJfq6iM> Take care, Dave K
