I haven't seen much light on this problem.  Let me guess what is going on:

 

Obviously, seen from previous posts, DX4WIN checks the operating system
identifier during installation to determine which CW driver to use or what
library to put it in.  If you have copied DX4WIN from another computer, you
need to copy the VICHW11.SYS file into the new computer.

 

I suspect that your new operating system, Win XP Pro x64, is not known to
DX4WIN, so it does not copy the file, or copies it to the wrong library.
Conventional wisdom would suggest that manually copying the file to the
drivers directory would solve the problem. But, it is possible that the new
operating system requires an entry in the registry in order to load drivers,
or a different library is being used.

 

Are there any other DX4WINners out there who are using DX4WIN with Win XP
Pro x64 successfully?

I have now done a coplete re-install of Win XP PRO x64. Before I installed 

any other software or created any user acounts I installed DX4Win and copied


the file. But NO! It do not work now either. I rebooted and tried again. No 

luck. I copied the file to Dx4Win's map and also to c:\Windows, rebooted and


tried again. No, no no! It do not work.

 

What can I do?
