All,
Does anyone know how to change the native sample rate for USB sound cards
with Vista? I'm told the native setting is hidden and not in the normal
sound card settings.
Thanks,

Once I was told that XP also took adventage of some BSD code.
Well, it makes a good trivia question.
The Windows NT TCP/IP network stack had components that were originally
based on BSD code. But the OS itself? No, not that I've ever seen.

I have not found anything on the site you mentioned. The U.S. Government
obviously will continue to internally support XP, which should be for
many years, but they can not require MS to support it, when MS
discontinues XP. It is possible that MS will voluntarily sell XP for

Buy a Mac and load XP on it if you wish and have the best of both

Hello all
This is my first post here because now I have a problem. My wife got
me a new laptop with, of course Vista installed. None of the PSK
software I have tried and used on my old 2000 system will work because
they can't find the sound card. Any solution? Any PSK/RTTY software
already Vista
Jerry,
Multipsk has been updated to look for either the old sound driver for XP
or the new one for Vista. I have not found any other problems working
under Vista.
Dave Bernstein's DX Commander program works under Vista and can control
Multipsk with most rigs. I have my ICOM running under CI-V
Consider the Tigertronics SignaLink USB - it's an external soundcard and
interface in one package, I *think* it supports VISTA, you could always ask
Tigertronics. It'll probably be much better that your lappy's infernal
soundcard.

MS has *always* lagged behind Unix, Linux, BSD, and Apple
in this area. Always. MS propaganda aside.

NT/2000 was a desperate attempt by MS to stem the bleeding
