K3UTIL oddness
Locked
 
|
I wanted to look at the help file and instructions of v1.1.4.1. (no K3 attached)
Clicking on the ICON doesn't open a screen. It does start a process according to task manager. Click on the ICON again and the utility screen does open. This results in two instances of K3UTIL.EXE running. Closing the screen kills one. The other never goes away. If you try to close WIN-XP, XP tells you the K3UTIL needs time to close.... You have to kill it at that level. Should this be happening? de K3KO |

The first instance is probably trying to establish the baud rate of the K3.
Give it a few seconds if you don't have a K3 connected.

That may be as you say.
However, if you wait, nothing ever happens. The hour glass disappears and it stays in the process list. One never gets a screen or anything else-- at least in ten minutes. Presumably somebody having trouble getting his K3 connected to the PC would see this same oddness. de K3KO

I'm sitting at my laptop... not connected to the K3... and the K3
Utility Program starts perfectly normally. No problems. Perhaps you should try re-installing it??? 73, Ken K3IU K3KO wrote: > That may be as you say. > > However, if you wait, nothing ever happens.
