Chuck,

Both work together for me just fine! I use Windows 2000 Professional 
plus Writelog 10.52F and a IC-756PRO and an IC-756PROIII.

My set up for DVK:

Let's start with theMicroHam KEYER:  I have two virtual ports:

microHAM USB Device Router Tabs:

Ports:                                                                      
Audio:                                              PTT/FSK
Radio Control - COM4                                      From Left to 
Right                              Top to Bottom
FSK-                COM3                       Select      A        
C        A                                      PTT1
CW                  COM3 
DTR                                                                             
                
PTT2
PTT                  COM3 
RTS                                                                             
                
PTT1

Writelog Setup:

Ports

COM3    CW selected                  No Rig              Auto         
Poll checked                   Comm PTT Yes
COM4    Not checked                Icom 756ProII    9600         Poll 
checked                   Comm PTT Yes

DVK type - Windows sound board

All mode PTT on CWport RTS - checked

CW keyer - PC generates

Wave Files Locate - C:\ham\WaveFiles (you need at least one .wav files 
in the subdirectory)
CW Speed
CW PTT - On LPT pin 16/COMM RTS  checked

Writelog Tools:

Sound board options

WriteLog Sound Board setup:

Enable Recording Loop - checked
Echo Microphone - checked

WriteLog Sound Mixer Level Control  (access from 
Start-Programs-WriteLogV10- Soundboard mixer control

My info for this tab: I use a $10.00 Avance Logic ALS-4000 stereo sound 
card I purchased at CompUSA. Tests at 7f with sbrdchk.exe

Audio out - Avance Sound
Mixer - Avance Sound               Audio in -Avance Sound
Audio review - Avance Sound

Receive selection - Line

Left Radio Active - checked
Msg play level Active - checked
Msg level - Active - checked

******************************************************

I assume you purchased the optional control cable with the 37 pin connector!

Cables as follows: Computer Line Out to microKEYER Line OUT
                            Computer Line In to MK Line In
                            Computer Mic to MK Mic In

DB37 to the MK and the other connections (remote, etc)
******************************************************
Good luck with it!  The above setup got me there on the very first try...
