Hi Mike,

 Thanks for that tip. I actually changed my screen settings since I do
picture editing on the XP Pro machine. But I went into the Scale Factor and
now I got everything looking better than every!!

 Next thing I will do a little later is make a dual copy on the XP Pro
machine. I have a regular hard drive but I also have a digital drive that
keeps a mirror copy just in case the old style hard drive decides to stop
turning!

Hello Ron,

File > Preferences > Screen > Scale Factor

The default is 100 (%), try something bigger.  If that doesn't give you the
look you want, you may have to try changing the settings on your monitor.

Subject: [Dx4win] Upgrade from 8.05 to 9.01 with XP Pro

Hello,

 I have a dedicated machine that runs XP Pro that is not connected to the
Internet in any way. I have it connected to my K2 and K1 for CW keying but I
do pull the plug to run a straight key, bug or the keyer inside the K2 and
K1 rigs.

 I have been one of the longtime guys that uses the DX4WIN program since day
one. So I decided to do the upgrade but I first went out and purchased a new
USB Flash Drive. I backed up the entire folder for DX4WIN 8.05 version.

 I downloaded the new DX4WIN 9.01 and purchased the license. A few hours
later I received my receipt and the V9 license file.

 I loaded the file onto the computer that is on the Internet running Win 7.
I then loaded onto the XP Pro computer. I then copied my log file into the V
9.01. Everything opened up fine and seems to work great. Now for the real
test. I did an update on the V 9.01 on the Win 7 computer. I copied the
DX4WIN Version 9.01 file from the Win 7 computer to the XP Pro computer.

 I opened up my log file and everything is working fine. Now I just have to
go and transfer some files I use in the DX4WIN for CW and PSK to their
proper location.

 One thing I would like to do is make the windows larger on the XP Pro
machine but I have a larger monitor I can use but that will be at a later
time.

Thanks to Paul and the Beta Testers.
