Hi Mike,

I´ve made a "how to" some weeks ago.
Hope this helps others having the same problem.

Betreff: LF: OPDS and Windows 7

This week I tried to run DF6NM's OPDS (Opera Deep Search) program on my
shack computer. The computer runs Win7 Ultimate which was an upgrade from
the awful Vista. Markus's software did not run properly, producing a screen
with various error messages and a corrupted list of callsigns. Having spent
some time in conjuction with Markus trying to fix this, I finally came up
with the following work-around.

I had discovered that the software worked well on my office computer that
runs WinXP. So I installed 'Windows Virtual Machine' and 'XP Mode' on the
Win7 computer (both programs free from Microsoft). I can now run both Win7
and XP on the same computer simultaneously. OPDS works under XP whilst Win7
runs the SDR front-end.

Hope this helps someone else run the excellent OPDS software on a
Win7 computer.

Mike, G3XDV
