OK, now I have not only reinstalled 6.02 over the first install, but then uninstalled it, ran Norton to clean up the registry, rebooted run Norton again, rebooted and reinstalled what should have been a clean install. Moved the N3HS.KEY File over, merged the INI file, etc. and it all seemed right in that I couldn't change my name or callsign in preferences, BUT it still is in demo mode and will not allow me to save my log. As of right now 6.02 is COMPLETELY UNUSABLE.

The N3HS.KEY file is in the right place and the usual things like radio, packet, etc seem to work. Merging the 5.03 *.INI file went smooth although not everything came over right - CW and rotator for example had to be reset. I cannot save the log as it still thinks it is in the DEMO mode and the exception happens each time I start DX4WIN. Had to re-do the rotator a couple of times and the CW keying when that didn't come over with the INI file. Now both rotator and CW seem to work and the radio and packet worked right off. I have not tried setting the packet spots to see if the country worked but not confirmed is there as I had hoped since I wanted to make sure that the basics were working OK. I just re-installed 6.02 to see if that fixed it and it didn't. The reinstall noted as it went along that the N3HS.KEY file was there and I had hoped that all was well. I have been suspicious of it being my fault as I re-arranged the shack over the holidays and although everything seemed to work, when I have had 6.02 problems like with the rotator, I went to Writelog to confirm that my interface was set up and working. I am using XP Pro and have been so for some number of months and that didn't seem to be a problem with 5.03. 73 Stan, N3HS -----Original Message----- From: Mel Martin (VE2DC) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 08, 2003 4:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Dx4win] Problem in 6.02 I've been watching pretty carefully Stan... And I haven' seen anything similar to what you are describing. Do you get the error every time you start? I would verify setting for LTP and COM ports as there have been a number of changes in this area. You might try disabling some stuff to see if the exception is coupled to a particular feature... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stan Staten Sent: February 8, 2003 4:18 PM To: DX4WIN Subject: [Dx4win] Problem in 6.02 I've been gone for the last few weeks and just got back and around to updating 5.03 to 6.02. When I start DXWIN I get an exception error in the form of an access violation at 00515d07. Also so far, rotor control doesn't work. (I checked it in 5.03 just to make sure that I hadn't messed things up in the upgrade. Since I have been gone I have missed the chatter on the issues when 6.01 and am looking for suggestions. I did search the archive for "error" or "exception" and found nothing so I guess I don't mind bothering the assembled group.
