The message that refers to setting up soundboard "Vista style" is
simply a matter of a conflict between your Writelog Soundboard
configuration and the Windows Sounds configuration. In most cases
it is benign.
Use the Windows Sound Control panel and the Writelog "Sound board
mixer control" application to get them aligned and you will not
receive the error message. Vista/Windows 7 does not allow more than
one input on a sound card to be active at a time. You need to make
sure that no other application (including the operating system
defaults) are holding one of the sound card (microHAM Codec, USB
Audio Codec, USB Voice CODEC) inputs open when WriteLog initializes
the audio inputs. Similarly, you need to make sure that WriteLog
is initializing the correct card/inputs -= and that may change
depending on the contest (mode).
