Combining RISCOS and Windows 11 Pro in a single
FAST system
The ECOS 11 is an internal companion system that
extends the ECOS concept into the Windows
environment, specifically Windows 11 Pro. Designed for
integration into RISCOSbits FAST ITX systems, it
provides the ability to run modern Windows software
alongside RISC OS in a tightly integrated configuration.
It uses an Intel Alder Lake-N97 processor with four
cores, running at a base clock of 2.0 GHz and boosting
up to 3.6 GHz. The standard configuration is supplied
with 12 GB of RAM, and storage is provided by a 256 GB
SSD, with upgrade options available up to 8 TB for
applications requiring large capacity.
Connectivity includes Wi-Fi and Ethernet internal
networking link to the host RISC OS system for file
sharing and interoperability. Video output is handled by
dual 4K HDMI ports, allowing for multi-monitor Windows
setups. ECOS11 is powered directly from the host
motherboard, requiring no additional external power
supplies or cables.
Running Windows 11 Pro, the ECOS11 supports the full
range of Windows applications - from office suites and
graphics software to specialist engineering tools - while
allowing users to maintain the advantages of RISC OS.
This makes it particularly useful for workflows that
require modern software capabilities alongside the
efficiency, speed, and compatibility of RISC OS.
The system operates entirely in parallel with RISC OS,
meaning both can be accessed at the same time through
the integrated network connection.
