PowerSDR won't start
Posted: Sun Aug 26, 2018 8:09 pm
This has been running for a year and a half or so ... I recently bought a new i7-8700 computer more for future proofing than anything else. so ... MAJOR failure...
so I got everything installed, I think ... VSPE, VAC, log, WSJT-X, PowerSDR. Had PSDR running with my latest DB and with all the VAC set up (of course new install so had to set EVERYTHING up)... I notice that under VAC there is no WDM selection, its only MME, Windows Direct Audio, HPSDR USB(!) ... the latter crashes, Windows Direct Audio works with WSJT-X.
So it was all running. The last thing was the MIDI panel. I checked the dates on the midi2 driver I had on the up until today “current” computer and used it (it seems to be the same as the release) ... I don’t remember Chris if there is something else I have to move over OR if there is a config file for the midi panel as I had it configured or if that is just stored in the normal database. Anyway I installed its software, plugged it in. Screwed up and hit one of its buttons before having gone to PSDR to Configure Midi (I remember before I had to be sure I didn’t touch a button before doing the configure) ... and nothing came up – no values for the 2A. So I decided to cycle power and start from scratch...
now PowerSDR won’t run! It gets about a third of the way through the green bar and stops with the Windows warning about it must quit. I’ve changed the name of my database so it goes to the default – I’ve changed the name of the wisdom file and started from scratch – won’t finish. It won’t even get to the part where from scratch it asks you which radio it is! I've uninstalled and reinstalled and I've cycled the computer power. These are all the tricks I know of ...
HELP!?
