Ron, I've seen exactly the same thing with my FLEX-5000A since I first installed it a few months ago. I suspect a VAC setup problem but haven't had time to thoroughly investigate.
Like yours, my PSDR runs properly and can be controlled from the remote machine if it's started before the remote connection. But I can't start it remotely. The splash screen appears but stops with the progress bar about 1/4" along saying Initializing Hardware and after a few seconds displays "Error communicating with the radio ..." I'm running PSDR 1.18.3 or 1.18.4, Win7 Pro 64bit. Latest firmware and firewire driver. 73, Sheldon VE1GPY -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Ronald G.

The FLEX-3000 is attached to a Neal Campbell low-cost system running Win 7 Pro 32 with all latest FLEX drivers. The remote machines (tried two) are running Win 7 Home Premium. One an Acer laptop (64bit, Intel SU2300 @ 1.2 GHz). One an HP desktop (32 bit, Intel Core 2 Quad @ 2.4 GHz). Connection is WiFi 802.11g WEP. PSDR runs properly and can be controlled from the remote machine if it had been started before the remote connection had been made. However, if I try to start PSDR from the remote machine, the splash screen appears but stops with the progress bar about 1/4" along saying Initializing Hardware. It eventually times out. What causes loading to stop?
