    Determining Fileserver? HELP!!

    Ok, I did that and I went ahead and put XP Pro on there. I still can't get them up. I can only have one Terminal up at a time, any other ideas? I assume for the most part everything is fine because the printers and cash drawers are working properly when their respective terminal is up. Thanks...

Two of the terminals are Windows 2000 and one is XP 4. All the terminals connect and are mapped to...

    Determining Fileserver? HELP!!

    My aloha POS is working fine, as long as I have only 1 Terminal on. We have three terminals and the license for those. They are all setup the same in the settings, I think, but whenever I boot up a second terminal it gets stuck "determining fileserver" then reboots. Any ideas, we are trying...

    ALOHA POS failed to open com port

    I can't figure out anything. I went by again and I am completely lost. The system seems to be setup right, there must be something in the inital setup of Aloha Manager I don't know how to change. Any ideas? Thanks I would even be willing to pay a tech support guy who could walk me thru this...

    ALOHA POS failed to open com port

    Ok. I checked and there is no printers installed. It just says "000" in the printer list. I also went in this morning and changed it to Term1 instead of Term6 and I got another com port error. They are all checked as Cone and order entry. They are dell CX260's with XP Professional. There are 3...

    ALOHA POS failed to open com port

    Its aloha table service. How do you change the master password? I believe it is still, hello. The licence key is connected to the parallel port and I believe it is setup for 3 or 5 terminals. I think because I was able to delete the printers I must be using the master account, but it never ask...

    ALOHA POS failed to open com port

    Ok. I didn't install any printers and I disconnected the printers as well. In the Aloha Manager under hardware - terminal - I set all the printers to none and I am still getting the error. I am not sure where or what the print subsystem is. How do I get to it?

    ALOHA POS failed to open com port

    I am pretty well versed in computers and IT but I have never installed Aloha before. We are opening a new restaurant and purchased a lot of equipment including Aloha. Once we got in the building and started setting up we realized the "key" was missing. So, I purchased a Key and BOH computer...
