Glenn, You can install the 8.05 exe file directly on your Win10 PC without any prior versions being present. As long as you have a license key, it will work fine.
I don't believe there is any difference between an upgrade file or a full version other than the price. And the author is the one to determine if you qualify for the upgrade price. 73, John K9EL -----Original Message----- From: DX4WIN [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Glenn Wyant Sent: Monday, January 2, 2017 2:13 PM To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] up grade to new PC Currently using Ver 6.05 with older XP PC Purchased a new Win 10 PC , if I try to use my old 6.05 disk to install on the new win10 machine, I get the message about the Port Driver is needed or not found. My new machine has no serial port, I will go wireless with that. I want to upgrade from 6.05 to 8.05 My old machine should not be a problem upgrading there. However how do I get the upgrade on the new win 10 pc when there is no DX4WIN installed there to the port driver requirement. The full version is $90 and the upgade is $40 , so a sizeable amount, considering the CDN dollar sucks. Any suggestions how I might proceed ??
