Unfortunately after configuration windows are closed and saved with a reboot and software restarted, I get a report from Windows saying, 'Can't open Sound card (2)' which is the Line-input (2 MicroHam CODEC). I have confirmed that my settings are according to the MicroHam Setup Guides. I know that the cabling is good and plugs are seated because I can set audio levels from both mic and line inputs. I have performed (confirmed) the adjustments under '6-Setting Audio Levels' on page 42 and following. I have checked the configuration of the MicroHam CODEC on page 11. I have carefully followed the MicroHam Router MicroKeyer 2 guide instructions. I have deleted the virtual serial ports and re-installed them separated by cold-boots and restarting all of the software. (DXLab Commander is not added to the list if it is running and the list is refreshed.) Again it is set to 'On' to allow apps to access the microphone unless the specific app needs to be listed. Below this setting, there is also a list where one may 'Choose which apps can access your microphone.' Unfortunately, neither MicroHam Router, DXLab Commander, nor N1MM+ appear on that list. I had already read Joe's (W4TV) past e-mail post on a May 9, 2018, about Win 10 soundcard issues where Joe advised to go to 'Settings' and go to 'Microphone' and 'Privacy Settings' to 'Allow apps to access your microphone' making sure to set that to 'On.' I found that settings-window and discovered it was already set to the on-position. If this group allows, there will be a picture of my Device Manager window at the bottom. As soon as I thought I had resolved that problem, then I started having soundcard problems. When I examined Device Manager, it appeared that the virtual serial ports were using Port 7 so I changed my FSK port to Com Port 8 in Router and the other apps. The error statement indicated there was a Com port conflict saying my Com 7 was already being used. The problem first occurred as a difficulty with the PTT. MicroHam Router: 9.2.0 used with the MicroKeyer II Thankfully, I was problem free until about early February 2019. :-)ĭear Joe and others who may offer constructive advice,Īfter watching others struggle with Windows 10 causing soundcard problems since the middle of last year, I have now encountered my own soundcard problem for the first time.
