MyoVision 8000 Technical Frequently Asked Questions
 
Summary
MyoVision wants you to have a working system. We would like to continue to support the MyoVision 8000 system but after twenty years of support we are unable to continue support at this time.

Call 800-969-6961, option 1 for more information about the 3G Wirefree system.
 
End-of-Life for the MyoVision 8000 system
For two reasons, we have been forced to make the difficult decision to discontinue support on all MyoVision 8000 systems.
 
First, the MyoVision 8000 was designed in 1989 and utilizes serial port technology. 

Serial port communication is simply not compatible with
modern computers,especially with the changes Microsoft
made in Windows Vista and the current Windows 7.
So, while the M8000 systems still functions wonderfully,
computer technology has moved forward and has created
a plethora of compatibility issues.
 
Secondly, chipmakers no longer manufacture key parts needed to continue to support MyoVision 8000. The combination of these issues has forced us to end technical support for the product.
 
Just as you would never expect a computer manufacturer to support a five-year-old computer, the same holds true with the MyoVision.  The MyoVision 8000 first shipped 20 years ago. Twenty years is a long time for a computer system to still function at peak condition. We still have doctors with systems 18 years old using them like new, so even if we can’t support the product through repairs anymore, you can rest assured that you invested in the finest technology available. 
 
But like all technology, the MyoVision system evolved over time and we have developed a new, more efficient, and more effective system. We are looking toward the future as we inform doctors that they can get an incredible deal on the latest technology: the MyoVision 3G WireFree system.
 
Those who have switched to the new 3G system have found themselves doubling their business by attending screenings with the impressive ScanVisions, developing lucrative PI practices with DynaVision and FlexVisions, and giving more accurate thermography readings with the ThermoVision. The new 3G devices are fast, simple, and compile the most comprehensive data so you can make the best adjustments possible for your patients.

Disclaimer
MyoVision will not be held liable for any damage done to your computer or MyoVision 8000 system.
 
MyoVision highly recommends you have a professional tech support person on staff to handle these issues and assist your process through the steps outlined in these articles, because some of them involve modifying your computer’s registry, or other advanced features that can severely damage the functionality of your computer if not done properly.
