I assume it wouldn't be too hard for you to run the old DS software on your current computer.

That's a good idea.
I'll try to get to that on Sunday.

Re: DS reliability

Joe, you're very right. I just did a test of the old driver station:

(I apologize, I forgot to show the histogram last time)

Do you have any suggestions for how I can have two versions of the DS installed on the same computer? This uninstalling and reinstalling is cumbersome for what should be a quick test.

EDIT:
Something seems funny about this data. The test took 2 minutes, not 2 hours.

EDIT2:
The data was correct, but my time elapsed calculation was not.
Here's a screenshot of another test of the same thing:

Just install the old version, save off the driver station .exe as a different name, then install the new version. You can then just run either one (one at a time).
