Re: [Dx4win] Re : Re : Windows 7
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.

As far as microHAM goes, FTDI have a serious bug in ftd2xx.dll that causes a lock up when the computer goes into sleep state or turns off power to the USB port. microHAM programmers have recommended uninstalling Router 8.0.7 and replacing it with the older Router 7.7.1 (uses a previous, stable version of ftd2xx.dll). The information is available from the microHAM list at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/microHAM/message/12328 Until a new (stable) version of d2xx.dll is available, it is wise to disable all power controls in the computer and set Windows for High performance.

This sounds like a similar problem seen on the microHAM list. You have configure your USB ports NOT to power down.

Re: [Dx4win] DX Calendar
Thank you, very good. 73, Jaime, EA6NB. -Mensaje original- From: Jim Reisert AD1C Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2011 19:51 To: DX4WIN Reflector Subject: [Dx4win] DX Calendar Here is my first attempt to create a calendar for DX4WIN. It's derived from 425 DX News #1060 ( http://www.jdxn.net/dx/110827-425-cal.htm ): http://dx4win.ad1c.us/calendar.txt Right-click on the link above and choose Save as. To load the calendar into DX4WIN, go to File | Calendar then: File | Import data dd/mm/ (make sure to select this date format, not the mm/dd/ format). The conversion still needs a little bit of work, this is just to get started. If you notice any differences between the on-line calendar and the one in DX4WIN, let me know (there are a lot of different formats to try to parse). I may find these problems myself, but every little bit helps. If people like this, I'll try to incorporate it into the DX4WIN Data Updater, and try to create the calendar on a weekly basis (I believe the bulletins come out on Friday). You'll still have to import the calendar each time (after updating/downloading). Maybe some day tine future, there will be a way to avoid that last step, but not today. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, jjreis...@alum.mit.edu, http://www.ad1c.us __ 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 __ 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

Hi David, I am using DX4win 8.05 with Win7-64 and a Flex 3000 and is not working well, there are long pauses and lost of synchrony, I think DX4win not like Virtual Ports with Win7-64 as VSPE or vspMg and also doesn't work well with LPbridge and mi K3, HDR and other software no problems.

Re: [Dx4win] Momentary Pauses in Windows 7 Ultimate
Hello, Yes it does to me using Win7-64 Pro and the worst is my radios K3 and Flex 3K when are connected to a virtual ComPort (Lp-Bridge, VSPmanager) when this pause in DX4win the radio has an error and disconnected of DX4win not with other software so I don't connect them to DX4win till this problem is solved. Exactly the same pause as you. 73, Jaime, EA6NB. -Mensaje original- From: Byron Peebles Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2011 02:30 To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] Momentary Pauses in Windows 7 Ultimate At first, I would be operating CW and find the first time I went to the CW typing window there would be an accasional pause before the soft-key content would appear and be sent. I attributed this to the fact I was using USB-to-serial-to-key keying. But, it now appears I get this randomly in the behavior of different windows when they get focus. For example, if I click on a spot that should take me to a new frequency, the QSO window clears, but the new entry doesn't popular immediately, just like the CW window didn't populate with the text from the soft-key press. In retrospect, I think this also happened in the packet window when I was getting that set up. Might still happen but I'm not really looking at it to see it. I only see this on change of window focus to an input-type window, that is a window that wold let me type into it. Is anyone else experiencing this? 73, Byron = Latest download of DX4WIN as of 2011-04, nothing else running. Windows 7 Ultimate patched 2011-04-13, including current USB drivers.
