I have a Win XP, SP3 machine running Arduino Alpha 0018 using a Spark Fun FTDI basic board to interface with an Ardweeny.
Works great. I can do stuff.
I got a brand spanking new Uno for my birthday.
I was going to set the Uno up to run on my Win 7 box, but then I wondered.
Can I have both run on my XP box? The last thing I want is to go through and update the Arduino software and all of a sudden my FTDI board and Ardweeny don't work. I'd like to just be able to make a selection on the Arduino software menu and jump back and forth depending on which one I plug in. Can I do that? Any suggestions in this regard or will it "just work" and I need to suck it up and do it?
