I just came home tonight to find that my dell Optiplex 755, which runs DX4win, had rebooted. It appears that it rebooted after being forced to reboot and download some update forced by Microsoft. The display was the wrong size as though whatever download had occurred had changed my monitor calibration.
However, when I tried to load DX4WIN, it was like the ini file had been erased or maybe gone back to an earlier ini file, maybe even the default that you get from Paul when you buy a new license and program, because everything about the program was different. My call was in there, but all the station information was gone or wrong (e.g., wrong lat / lon, all the modes boxes were checked where I had only checked the ones that I really work, and the packet window was reset for no packet). It was like I was using a default ini file. Now I have started to recreate the layout that I like, but all spots are grayed out and none of them show their worked or needed status. The country database seems to be gone, but the logbook seems to be OK. When I try to open the country window, I get the following error "Fixed Column Count must be less than column count" I have no idea what just happened. Can anyone give me a clue. Has the program lot the INI file, and if so, how should I get it back without creating all sorts of problems. 73 Gary W5FI ______________________________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
