Re: [Dx4win] Problem Getting DX4Win to work on a new computer

2017-05-31 Thread David Kozinn, K2DBK

Hi Carol,

I'd argue that yes, you should upgrade, but there is a simple solution:

I found this in the archive from Paul from January 2005:

Paul,

The example given was for winNT/XP. For Windows/98 there is a different
driver and destination directory. From the on-line help:

for Win/95/98:
Windows\System\Vichw11.vxd

for Win/NT/2000/XP:
WinNT\System32\Divers\Vichw11.sys

I made some modifications in 6.04 to see if we can eliminate the problem.

resource.

After a long time using an XP computer, I upgraded to a windows 7

10. The problem...



I am using an older version of DX4WIN... version 6.02 and have the CD 
for it. That version worked fine on my XP and I was able to keep it 
current with the updater. I also upgraded the shack to an HP 6830 
printer and installed all the drivers. It works fine. Unfortunately 
when I tried to use the CD to put DX4WIN on the windows 7 machine, 
everything went well until I tried to run the program. I got the error 
message, " Port driver not found". Is it time for me to upgrade DX4WIN 
6.02 or is there a way to cure this error



Thanks,


Carol
