I picked up a bobcat at a second hand store. Unfortunately, it didn't come with any software.
I've spent a few hours on google,etc. trying to solve this on my own- including signing up for GCC club and attempting to register the machine - only to discover that there is no serial number on the bottom of this one for whatever reason. I sent a message to GCC themselves, only to be greeted by tumbleweeds, crickets, and total darkness... no reply from them at all.
From what I've read, I'll have better luck getting this thing going with an XP machine. I have an old PC up and running with 32 bit XP, ready to be dedicated to running this plotter.
And that's where I've hit a wall. I managed to find the 64 bit version of the drivers for this machine, but not the 32 bit. Also, I don't have any other related software, at least not on this machine.
I have illustrator and photoshop on my main PC, but not on the old XP machine. I imagine I could design things on one PC and transfer the files over to the other with USB drives or whatever, but I don't know what to do with it from there.
Any help is welcome, thanks in advance!
