A method for preventing computer down time, particularly relative to painting processes for vehicles. The method includes dividing the order into groups based on color, painting them in color order, and then sequencing them into the original build order. Between each different color, a paint purging process occurs. A primary computer is used to control the entire process. To insure continuous function, a secondary computer is provided in the event of primary computer failure. The functional status of the secondary computer is constantly monitored. As long as the secondary computer is functional, the primary computer will update the secondary computer. If the secondary computer is not functional, the primary computer updates itself.
