[Dx4win] Fwd: Re: DX4WIN PSK & Vista

Hi Jim

Always good to hear from you. 

Yes, indeed I am running DX4WIN as administrator all the time.

I guess the big issue is that the sondcard0, 1, 2.. is good for Windows XP
but not for Vista. Vista applications must choose specific inputs/outputs
and not soundcards.

Just as an exemple, I have moved MMTY from XP to Vista as well. In the new
MMTY version that supports soundcard correctly on Vista, you can choose the
input sound source and the output you use. MMTY works perfectly.
I guess DX4WIN would need to do the same thing.

If there is not any fix or the due implementation on the newer version, it
is likely PSK window will not work correct in a given hardware. 

This is a shame because I like DX4WIN so much. Whether we like or not
DX4WIN must keep up with the current windows versions or it will be
outdated soon.

I still have a hope there is a fix or a work around.

Fred
