Elan Unfortunately, with store bought computers, you will not know whether it works until you try it! Can you access the machine you are interested in? If so, go in the Device Manager and see if the 1394a device has a unique IRQ. If it does, it has a decent chance of working once you tune the

My mouse scroll wheel suddenly stopped working to control the tuning with my Flex-3000. It was working fine until I came home from work tonight. It continues to work normally with all other programs. Is there a PowerSDR setting that controls this that I can try to toggle on and off? The only

Bill Just so I understand, your mouse wheel will no longer adjust vfoa? Even if you click on vfoa so that the underline is under one of the digits? Or Are where you using HotWheels mouse control? Which requires that the program be started and the scroll lock button be enabled. On 11/5/2009
