Something got corrupted this evening when using SDRC, vers 3.0.22.  I have since upgraded to 3.0.23, but the problem persists.

1. Using Win 8.1, 16 GB with NVIDIA 1650 Super video card.

2. The screen froze up while listening to a station  using the Elad receiver.  Had to use Task Manager to close the program.

3. When restarting the program, I do not get the initial menu which lists, the Elad receiver and the Perseus receiver - allowing me to choose one of them.  The Elad and Perseus files are still in the SDRC subdirectory as they have been from day one.

4. So I tried Receiver Tab, Select a receiver.  When I click on the button the program totally freezes and I have to use Task Manager to close it.  I tried this a couple of times - same result.

5. The attached picture shows that the SDRC GUI didn't fully load. When I clicked on the screen after 45 seconds, the rest of the GUI loaded, but not receiver list was presented.

6. The Elad and Perseus are working with their native software.

7. Of course I have rebooted the computer.

This is the first time I have had this issue with SDRC. Any help/suggestions are most welcome.

Additional Information:

1. I was able to get the program to start-up with the receiver selection menu.

2. I could change from 8 MHz to 100.1 FM as shown on the memories screen.  Also the program would change to 162.501.

3. However when I hit the 1240 KHz memory button, the frequency display indicates 1240, but the spectrum and waterfall, sure doesn't.  The station at 1240 was being heard while this situation was happening. Also, the spectrum/waterfall screen is frozen on the screen.

4. The attached picture shows the 1240 frequency and the waterfall/spectrum up at 145 MHz.

So please factor this information into any suggestions.

Last Message for tonight.

1. When selecting the memory button for 1240 KHz, the spectrum/waterfall screen remains on whatever frequency was displayed before I pushed the 1240 memory button.

2. I deleted the memory and added it back.  No change.

3. Tried to add another memory in an unused memory slot.  The program froze again.

4. Also when the program restarts the Y-axis that has the signal strength in S-units, is reset from +70 to -20db.  I had it set from +30 down to S0.

5. Would like to create the log file, but the thing freezes up on me.

Is there a master reset button that I need to try?

try THIS option

I have uninstalled using the SDRC routine and then reinstalled the software vers 3.0.23 and checked the item Sigi mentioned, which was already checked.  However, the memory and favorite file(s) where still there.  So how do I delete everything?  What about cleaning out the appropriate registry entries (if needed)?

The program is still acting the same way.  The Elad and Perseus files were still in the folder.  So I deleted them and now want to add them back (fresh copies of them).

There were 10 Perseus files and 22 Elad files.  When I look in the Elad folders and Perseus folders, there are not that many files.  It was a long time ago that I set up SDTC and now do not remember exactly how I determined which files to use.  And why 10 and 22 files?  Where did they come from?

I find it odd that these files would be the issue, since the program itself is acting odd.

I am now at a total loss on how to proceed.  I really like SDRC and really want to get it working again.

Thanks,
George

I have now deleted the user files.  

I notice that the Elad and Perseus files are now in the progrs\am folder.  Are those placed there by the SDRC install program?

When loading the program now, the screen just freezes and Task Manager is needed to close the program.

I must say this is not making any sense to me now.

Geo.

I deleted all SDRC entries under User Software section in the registry and reinstalled.  With the Elad all seems to be working now.

Perseus now working also
