Install last stable Cura on an older (i3) Windows laptop

Posted (edited) · Install last stable Cura on an older (i3) Windows laptop

Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum and fairly new to 3D printing.

I have 2 laptops (both are windows running 10 but only have i3 processors) that won't take any version of Cura from 5.0 up to the latest.

4.1.3  works but I was wondering if a newer version (like 4.6 or 4.7 ) would work.

The video cards are the problem and I can't replace them like you can on a desktop.

Any ideas / solutions to this?

Thanks in advance, Pete

    Thanks Dustin but I don't think that's what i am looking for. I do have the older Intell HD Graphics 3000 card and when ever I try to install 5.0, I get the message that my graphics won't support the 5. versions. I was wondering if 4.7 of 4.8 would work and if so, where can I download one of them.

    There is no such thing as Ultimaker Cura 4.1.3. There is Ultimaker 4.13 (which I think you have), which is newer than 4.6, 4.7 or 4.8.

    You can download 4.13.1 (the latest from the 4.x releases) here:

    https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/releases/tag/4.13.1

    Other releases can all be found here:

    Thanks Ahoeben, you are correct. It is 4.13. The next I guess is the 5. series which won't work on my laptops. I guess I'll have to do with that one till I get a newer system.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
