Software and Documentation

The software on Van Koevering interactive products is very similar in operation but different none the less. All units use the same IMTSS (Interactive Music Touch System Software), however each version is tweaked slightly for its hardware platform. That is why you cannot install software from a VIP 300 and install it on a VIP 1300 and vise versa. Microsoft Windows is different as well, the P1000s use windows 95 and P1010s and P2000s use 98SE. The operating system is not upgradeable on any of the models. You also cannot use a Microsoft install disk to install the software only the First Aid Kit will work for reinstalling software.  Although it is reported that a few people have managed to use a Microsoft install disk for the operating system when issues arose with the First Aid Kit disk, but I have no actual details of the procedure.
