I cannot seem to get the computer and lights linked, I've gotten a few to recognize that there is DMX but nothing works and half te lights dont even recognize the Dmx is there. Thoughts? I am using older technology, windows 2000 and the sweet light box. Thx

I don't know specifically about Sweet light itself but my show press box seems to do that every now and then during boot up. But I just reload the boxes drivers and that does the trick for me. Is there a light on your box indicating it's receiving DMX?
Is the Live or Editor screen have the DMX button turned on?

Sorry, but we do not support the OS Windows 2000.

To Nac1977.
I have used the Chauvet ShowXpress since version 4. Version 4 & 5 worked on Windows 98 and 2000, but version 6 is not very stable on these operating systems.
