Dear Confocal List,

We have an Olympus AX70 with a DP70 color CCD camera. The PC started getting a bit flimsy so we want to reinstall it on a new machine. Our setup only has the camera connected to the PC, the microscope is run independently.


We can get the drivers easily from the Olympus Website but it requires the Original installation CD when running the setup called DP-BSW

Thing is, we never had that disk as the system was installed in our facility a long time ago and had been purchased by another lab.

So my question is this. If anyone has a DP-BSW disk somewhere, would an ISO image suffice to have the install software be happy and continue installing? And if so, would anyone have access to such a disk or ISO file?

We also contacted Olympus, who are kindly looking into their archives for us and who are offering us to migrate to the basic version of their CellSens Software in case nothing is found.

It's unfortunate as the microscope itself in in perfect shape.

For your time and kindness, I thank you.

Best

Oli

Hi Oli,

It should be able to be downloaded from Olympus website and installed as it instructed:

Indeed we managed to acquire the download, by entering our camera serial number. However during installation, the software requires an original CD as a secondary confirmation. This is why we cannot currently install it.

I have already been contacted by someone on the list who can help.

All the best, and thank you all for your replies and prompt help!

Oli
