I run my station remote. I just upgraded to 11.18 and now all I get is "Error setting up device names for sound, Vista-Style" I know what this error means and I know that the sound devices do not appear to Writelog in the same order as the last time it was started. I have encountered and fixed the issue before. I know all that but, and a big but, No matter what I do with the PC and the WRITELOG.INI file I still get the error when launching WriteLog application.

Steps I have taken.

1. Eliminated all sound card references in c:/windows/WRITELOG.INI file. (over and over again) 2. I have run the WriteLog Sound Board Mixer Control application and selected the proper Codecs IE: xmit from PC = Headset Earphone (4-microHAM CODEC) DVK mic=Headset Microphone (4-microHAM CODEC) and rec to PC=Line(4-microHAM CODEC). (over and over again) 3. Eliminated all other Audio Codecs in the system . The MicroHAM Codec is the only audio device available to any application. Same result.

There is some Writelog glue that is not apparent. When I open Writelog with NO codecs selected in the Writelog.INI file I do NOT get the error message "Error setting up device names for sound, Vista-Style" which is right, there are none selected. BUT in all cases , including when I have codecs selected, after the program starts I get another error message saying "Cant open sound card (3)" This indicates to me that Writelog is still trying to open a sound card that is in a different position but, there are none. Only the MicroHAM codec. There are NO other Writelog.ini files on that machine.

I have re-installed WL (but not a full up installation) but I am 1500 miles from the host PC. I can do most anything to the PC except unplug the Microkeyer II, that I cannot do.

Any ideas ?  Anyone seen this before ?

Thanks in advance,

Joe K8FC
