This sounds like a chipset driver or a BIOS issue. Have you updated either lately? I usually get the chipset drivers for the chipset manufacturer rather than getting them from the motherboard manufacturer. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Walsh Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 2:11 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: Re: [Flexradio] New Driver/Firmware Comment Eric, Thanks for the input. Re the Tx Meter issue: after reading your comments, the Tx Meter issue is my operator error -- I wasn't aware of the special TUN setting and it looked to me like the Tx Meter setting wasn't taking effect properly when going into TUN/transmit mode. Re the lockup problem: This is definitely a long DPC problem but it's not related to the network card, which is not used on my Flex computer. The actions I described, e.g. opening a directory in Explorer, cause the DPC time to jump up to ~ 1.5 mS for a short period. Sometimes PowerSDR has no problem with this and sometimes it causes it to freeze up. I was hoping the new driver, firmware and/or PowerSDR might be able to deal with this without freezing. Anyway, thanks again and great job on the keying problems. I just finished a long QSO tormenting the other guy with my bad bug sending. The Flex had no keying problems of any kind. 73, Mike - ke5akl _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
