[Dx4win] Error messages

[Dave Sharred]

To be clear in Jo's initial email; are you talking about start up of DX4Win or when the program is running?
 
If you are talking at start up; I have seen the same sort of behaviour on 2 PC's (Win XP and WIN7).
 
IN the past (XP, older PC, earlier DX4Win) I also concluded that the driver was not installed correctly on a newly booted PC.
 
I still see this sometimes on my new WIN 7 laptop.  I will install the driver at start up, which I think will provide the answer; later today.
 
(BTW - I am using MicroHam USBII as my rig interface)

I also have noticed this but occasionally. I believe that usb to serial 
driver is not loaded so quickly because our computer are not so fast. If you 
wait for a while or open another program first, there will not be a problem.
