The weather station got a server upgrade tonight. About an hour and a half of false data starting at 9:45 lasting until about 11:15pm. I had some issues with the software as I transferred it from a Windows 2000 Professional operating system to a Windows XP professional operating system. The reason for the upgrade is due to anti-virus software no longer being supported widely for Windows 2000 Professional.
The new system is an Athlon 2400, with 2Gb of DDR2 ram with a 160Gb PATA harddrive running Windows XP Professional. The station software is still Weather-Display however it is now the latest version of Weather-Display. The new server should be more reliable with less reboots and down times than the old server. It is also running an operating system that is more widely supported than the previous operating system.
You have 876 days until XP stops being supported by Microsoft (4/8/14 based on this Microsoft Report: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/lifecycle).
