[Dx4win] DX4WIN with WIN 7

[Ernie]

John,

Are you connected to a rig interface? If so, try "stopping" the radio, 
then see if there are any changes in operation.

I had a similar problem here after I switched to Win7 and a new FT-950 
about the same time.

In my case DX4Win would be slow to respond to mouse clicks, appear to 
run slow, update key entries slow, etc. My problem's root cause was a 
faulty RIG file that had delay values that caused the program to pause 
excessively when reading the radio values via the CAT interface. Once I 
figured that out and repaired the RIG file, the program worked like it 
did when I was running a different rig and Windows XP.
