Hi Wes, Thanks for the advice, I actually did a fresh install of DX4win but copied over the .ini file and the SAVE directory then the licence key. Everything works, I think, although I have not yet connected it up to a rig, except the DX4Win internet connection. I have a good internet connection from the new laptop as the email client is working and CCUser is downloading spots OK. If I can't get is to work I will transfer the complete DX4Win directory over as you suggest. I did not want to try that initially as the old laptop is a WinXP machine and the new one is Win7 and the files now have to go in the root directory a and not into PROGRAM FILES, that concerned me. 73 Andy G3SVD

One thing to keep in mind about DX4WIN is that you can simply move the entire DX4WIN directory (folder) to just about any location you want to (including moving to another computer) and the program will run as before. You just have to be sure you have the same COM port numbers available on the new computer and that you have the external cables plugged in correctly. You should not have to "transfer" any settings. ----------------- Wes Attaway (N5WA) ------------------- 1138 Waters Edge Circle, Shreveport, LA 71106 --- 318-393-3289 (Cell) --- Computer Consulting and Forensics -------------- EnCase Certified Examiner --------------- -----Original Message----- From: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Andy Hewitt Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 10:23 AM To: DX4win Subject: [Dx4win] Laptop upgrade XP SP3 to Win7 Hi a bit of advice please. I am in the process of retiring an old PC used when travelling and operating from XE. I have DX4win uploaded and running as well as CCUser cluster software connected to VE7CC-1. I have transferred all (I think) of the setting from one laptop to the other but when DX4Win will not see the data from CCUser. >From the drop down menu in the Packet window I select "LOCAL>CC User,localhost:7300" but nothing happens.I have also tried connecting directly to a local node with the same result. The new laptop is 64 bit. 73 Andy G3SVD ______________________________________________________________ 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
