In response to your query about running comos through windows (I'm not
sure about MPL)...We have a BIO-RAD MRC-600 which runs through comos and
has Windows through which other software image processing runs. It is
possible to run comos through Windows; however, with our computer, there
is not enough memory to support all that is required during image
capture. I tried doing this, for ease of switching to Nexus which is
Windows suppported,  and found that the z-series capture did not work
properly - The focus motor would not move consistently and a full scan
was not always taken before the image was saved,  leaving one with an
incomplete z-series.
        So from my experience, I would exit Windows before entering
Comos, although this may vary on the computer that you are running your
system on.
