error opening LinuxCNC was created by RobKin

So had a computer failure. Moved my SSD to a new computer, old had PCI slots new one has PCIE. So have to go from 5i25 to use a 6i25 board.
I was surprised the SSD booted up fine in the new computer. Looks like LinuxCNC sees the 6i25 but doesn't register?
In PncConfig it seems to only give an option for the 5i25. Are the boards the same? Is there a way to get it to register?

The board is registered and working, but seems to have firmware not for 7i76.
Download the support files from mesanet.com, extract, and flash the firmware for 6i25 with 7i76.
Check the manual for how to, a single line is all it takes, if you have mesaflash installed.
