<html><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>Hi Heath,</div><div><br></div><div>Well my ears are not closed, I will look at virtual box today. I might need some help with that as well so I will give you a call such recommended Ram. I am expecting my flex radio to be delivered within the next few days as well and that has a problem with VAC "virtual audio cable" that is a Russian program that has an issue with a driver as well. This of course links the digital programs up to Power SDR that is the heart of flex radio. </div><div><br></div><div>It seems we need to be IT experts these days to play ham radio, I am beginning to wonder, I will look at virtual box today, if it's not to intensive or cumbersom on the machine (or me) that may be a good workaround for the ID-1. I am usually on VK2RWN port C or skype. Even if I don't use it I have learnt something. Thanks for sharing.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks

In the meantime I will apply more pressure to a contact I have in the US. I can do the push F8 routine at boot up but it is more the point of why should I with that sought of radio. For those also interested "Virtual Audio Cable" for flex-radio and the USB "SCS" ptc pactor modem are in the same driver problem category.<br>

Hi Tony,<br><br>Yes, it runs as 32 bit app however the 64bit are kernal based drivers.

Hi Mick,<br>
<br>
I have asked the US but not Japan and no reply from the US, with the direction of architecture going x64 to handle the "Ram of tomorrow" it seems very strange especially for such a "techy" type radio not to support an x64 Vista driver.<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
These days, it seems a bit poor that there wouldn't be a 64 bit driver. 64 bit is now mainstream with Vista, combined with common PC configurations having 4GB RAM. I have 1 machine here running Vista 64 bit myself.<br>
