Are the upgrades still a problem? I am moving to a Windows 10 computer due to my current pc failing. Is there anything I can do when I set up the computer, to avoid issues with the upgrades? Pat WW9R

    I use DAX for RTTY, so it may be an issue.  I will follow your advice and hopefully that will stop any unexpected issues.  Thanks to everyone for the quick replies.

    I too use Win 10 and have only had one issue which I quickly fixed.  One thing is that you'll want to have the new Win 10 computer fully updated *before* you install SDR.  Don't install SDR and immediately thereafter do a huge update.  I did that and I had to re-install SDR, which by the way was very easy to do.

    Good luck.  de Roger W6VZV

    This conflict with DAX and windows updates has gone on long enough.  I had it happen and Tim had to fix it and now it has happened again with the latest update.  Getting sick of this ****.  Flex...GET IT FIXED

    Microsoft is an equal-opportunity destroyer - they indiscriminately attack any sound driver, not just those from Flex. A fix for this also involves Microsoft caring to fix it!
