We have an ancient microscope that has an ancient Gatan camera controlled by a Windows XP computer. The computer has been giving us trouble and our campus IT people would like to see it vanish, so we are planning to upgrade it. I was all set to pay for an
upgrade from our ancient version of DigitalMicrograph (GMS 1.x, if I remember correctly) to GMS 3.x, but I learned that our camera is not supported in recent versions of GMS and that an upgrade simply would not work.

I was able to build a Windows 10 virtual machine, and to install an older version of DigitalMicrograph onto it. That VM obviously didn't have a camera attached, but that process indicated that I might be able to install the older version of DM on a modern
machine and have everything work properly. So that is the current plan.</div>

However, I'm not sure how to transfer the current DM license from the existing Windows XP machine to the new installation. Gatan normally supplies an installer program that takes care of this, but we no longer have that program.

Has anyone transferred a license and if so, could you please explain how? Thanks.<br>
