[Dx4win] CW with Windows xP with version 5.03

2003-05-04 Thread Mel Martin (VE2DC)
You can just copy the driver No need to re-install... File attached... Instructions below... The file I attached is the one distributed with 6.02... But I'm pretty sure it works with all versions... No harm in trying... Don't forget to delete or more/rename vich11.vxd, the 95/98 driver...

I don't see it's broken now... I've tried it here and it works fine on the COM port... It works fine on the LPT port... The only issue that I've seen raised is if one is using a different radio for digital modes... Otherwise why would you need more than one port to handle PTT. What am I missing?
