Hi Christian, The RaiseFailFastException function is not supported on Windows Server 2008. Server 2008 R2 is the minimum supported version (see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd941688(v=vs.85).aspx), and thus it appears 2008R2 (on the server side, and 7 on the desktop side) is also the minimum supported version for gnuplot. You can probably get by on 2008 with an older version of gnuplot, from back when XP was supported. I don't know off the top of my head what version that would correspond to.
