My new machine will have Windows Vista on it. I have discovered that some
programs for digital modes don't work on Vista and that MMSCAN and MMTTY, on
their web site, state that their programs do not work properly on Vista and
that they do not intend to correct this.

So, what does everyone plan to do? Stay with Windows XP? I kind of think
that I will take XP off my old PC and delete Vista from the new one and put
the old XP on the new one and pretend that Microsoft never tried to
"improve" its operating system.

Many of the new computers won't work correctly with Xp, as they are
built with Vista in mind, and their are no Xp drivers for some of that
hardware.

Hello,

Did you really need to buy vista?
There will probably never be any support for this bugged OS.
I run MMSSTV, MMTTY SmartPSK and Winlog32 under MDV 2007.1 with no problem.

If you don't like the Linux penguin, try BSD.

It's time now to tell M$ to keep it's bull****.

Just to through my two cents in. I've been running vista on my laptop
since the RTM in January 2007. I'm a programmer by trade and was
testing it for work more than anything. Any way to the point. I've
been running MMTV and MMTTY along with Ham Radio Deluxe (my main logging
program) under vista with no issues. The one thing I did notice was
that some of the menu options that want to manage the sound card don't
work. Like in MMSTV under the "Options" menu there are two options for
sound card input and output. They don't bring up the audio sliders.
But not a big deal you can just right click on the speaker icon in the
system tray (by the time lower right) and adjust it that way. I'm not
usually a Microsoft supporter (in fact all of my machine at home are
Gentoo Linux) but I don't mind Vista.
