[Dx4win] Dx4win support

Thu Aug 13 09:01:41 EDT 2009

This bug has been reported... it's an issue with a missing library...

here is the fix from K8UT:

"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:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=200b2fd9-ae1a-4a14-
984d-389c36f85647

DX4Win801 is now working properly on my Ham computer."
