[Dx4win] DX4Win801 installation - Oxc0150002 error and solution

[Larry Gauthier (K8UT)]

All,

I downloaded and installed DX4W801 and encountered an error message upon 
launching the program:
"The application failed to initialize properly (Oxc0150002). Click OK to 
terminate the application".

Most users will not have this problem. DX4Win801 installed properly on 2 PCs 
here but failed on my Ham Shack PC. After some troubleshooting I determined 
that DX4Win needed the Microsoft Visual C redistribution library, which can 
be downloaded from:

DX4Win801 is now working properly on my Ham computer. Initial tests with my 
peripherals: dual sound cards, dual monitors, EA4TX rotor control, USB 
Winkeyer, TopTen Devices band decoder, and MMTTY RTTY  have all been 
successful.

Next step is data conversion...

Congratulations to Paul and his cadre of helpers for moving DX4Win ahead 
with another slew of enhancements.

73!
