Re: [Flexradio] setting up computer for longer run time
Hi Dale, Two things to check. First, in Control Panel, go to power options (under hardware and sound) and change it from balanced to high performance. There is a pull down arrow to the right of balanced if you don't see the high performance option. Second, in Device Manager (right click Computer, properties, device manager) and under Universal Serial Bus controllers, right click each hub and go to properties. Under Power Management tab deselect "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". That should fix it.

Re: [Flexradio] setting up computer for longer run time
Hi Dale! Disable all "power saving" options. Look for check boxes saying something like "turn off this device when not in use to save energy". That "feature" is useful for laptops not connected to anything and running on battery power for long periods, but for a desktop PC that feature is nothing but trouble. For how to information on Windows-7 Power Management just Google "windows 7 power saving settings". 73 Lloyd - N9LB -Original Message- From: FlexRadio [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz]On Behalf Of w...@reagan.com Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2015 10:14 AM To: FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz Subject: [Flexradio] setting up computer for longer run time Iam running a 1500 on a NEW I-5 computer using windows 7 -64 bit.
