Greetings to this XP Forum. I just discovered you today. I have a terrific Audiophile Music Server from 2011 called <>
QSONIX Q205. It was VERY expensive when new. It has a gorgeous GUI which was way...ahead of its time. Unfortunately the company went out of biz in 20112. and I have spent more than 10 years trying to get help, since I purchased this system, It comes with a 15 inch touchscreen, and has the usual inputs (keyboard /mouse /Network port that normal XP boxes have. Everything works perfectly as it should....
The Q205 used to automatically connect to their own server for Album Covers and album information. When they shut their doors, they disconnected the servers. I do not know how to boot to the XP desktop so I can change to the XP Desktop config files, which is blocking itself from my home network and others. I also cannot install any drivers because I do not know how to get to the XP Desktop.
One time I ACCIDENTIALLY booted to the XP Desktop, holding down a couple of key combos during boot up. I do not remember what I did :-( very function works perfectly...and this system is definitely worth saving. It has an Audiophile audio Output section, all made by WADIA. ( Digital Output) The sound is still amazing. I have it loaded with approx 400 albums but I am not able to import any additional tunes, which is the reason I need help. The Network port works properly and I still get a valid IP address.
If anyone in this forum can help me, I would be incredibly thankful to you. If you need to be compensated for your time and effort, I am OPK with that as well. My knowledge of hardware and software is much higher than the norm, so I will NOT drive you crazy on the phone.
** I have attached pix of the unit, screen and rear of the machine
Sincere thanks,
Mike S.
