Took a bit of fiddling to get LP_Bridge to create virtual com ports, but
everything is now working with Windows 7. LP_Bridge sees the K3. PowerSDR
works with my 0202 USB Sound card. HDR connects too. The K3 utility works as
I was able to backup my K3.
The first two installations of Windows 7 failed with a blue screen at the
final reboot. It turns out the two USB to serial interface drivers were
hanging things up. I simply unplugged the hardware, did the install, then
plugged them back in. They run fine now. Not sure why they hosed the
install?? I guess the install doesn't like the drivers, but Windows 7 has no
problem after it's running.
I can't say exactly what was hanging up LP_Bridge the first few times I
installed it. On about the third install I tried installing it to 'My
Documents' rather than 'Program Files'. Worked fine then. Vista has new
security models for the 'Program Files' DIR which is what I suspect to be
causing the issues. However, after the successful install to the 'My Docs' I
was able to uninstall and reinstall to the 'Program Files' DIR. Go
figure.....
