Hi Jim...thanks for the reply. Well the directory location is different...on xp it was under program files and win 7 its under c:\ so it can not locate the log file. I am not sure where the path info is kept so it errors trying to find the log and won't even start up. I think I will try just copying the directory over from Xp to Win 7 and try that but if you do that instead of regular install aren't you bypassing the Win 7 registry process and will that cause other issues?

In the past, I have just copied the whole DX4W805 directory (including subdirectories) from the old computer to the new computer. Double-click on dx4win.exe and you're up and running. This of course assumes that the directory path to the DX4W805 directory is the same on both machines, and DO NOT put it in \Program Files... on the Win 7 machine. - Jim -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <[email protected]>, http://www.ad1c.us ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
