Hello, I have also this lockup problem only with DX4win and Win7-64 and it was terrible from time to time only when entering a call just got the first letter and freeze for about 8 seconds, after using DX4win since first editionI was looking for other Log software for this terrible problem. Good News! since yesterday after making the USB power modifications from Joe on Windows I have not experienced any lockup. I am running DX4win as told C\Dx4win and like, not Administrator Rights, I did try setting as Administrator on Properties, Compatibility and have suffer once a short 1 to 2 sec Lockup, so I have reverted to normal and at the moments no problems. I will test with LP-Bridge and similar if not cuts as before dew to this freeze. Thanks, 73. Jaime EA6NB.
