Installing PowerSDR on New Computer

I am currently running PowerSDR v2.7.2 for my Flex3000, which I recently fired up  and  is running fine. However, I need to install a new PowerSDR to a new computer, but I do not see the PowerSDRv2.7.2 installer?  It has been a while since I have used the radio and don't know what the current version of the PowerSDR should be for my Flex3000?  Which version would be easiest (and/or best) to install onto my new computer?  Thanks, Kent.

    You should go to KE9NS web site and down load v2.8.0.156. This runs very well with win7 to win 10. This is the latest PSDR software.

    Oops...sorry about that I found the PowerSDRv2.7.2 and have downloaded it and the documentation, which I will read, since the movie will not be coming out.  In the meantime, is there a file that I can import with my  current configuration?  Just wondering?  I will be getting my new FireWire card soon.  Thanks, Kent.

    Darin ke9ns does a great job with this stuff. Been out of my flex now for 13 months, i do miss it , but the ke9ns software was a great upgrade.

    Another advantage with the KE9NS version of PowerSDR is that it also gives you firmware updates if required. Recently I started using my Flex 1500 after it had not been used for some time. When I installed Darwin's latest version, I was supprized to get a notification of a firmware update, much the way I got it with my 6400. I like PowerSDR much more than the SmartSDR I used before selling my 6400! Thanks Darin for the great work you're doing with PowerSDR! Ken.. VE5KC

    Thanks, Marty and Ken.  I had not used my Flex for several years and have been away from Ham radio but it is great to be back and this info is helpful to get back the right way.
