[chirp_users] Vista problems

[John LaMartina]

Maybe elementary, but make sure you first create an initial template for CHIRP by Downloading the image from your UV-5R to your
computer.

Update that spreadsheet, then upload it back to the radio.

 

You may have already done this, but many overlook that step.

I have a Vista machine and have never had a problem.

Hi I am having trouble with Chirp. I have chirp running a windows XP home desk top and it works great. I have it running on windows
7 Laptop and it works great. 

My son windows Vista Laptop and we are having trouble openning a file or saving it.

When I have a file download from the UV5R I can enter anything that I want to. but I can not save that file. When I click "save as"
it does nothing at all. If I close the program it opens a little window open and asks if I want to save, delete or cancel, I select
save and nothing happens.

I can also click open from the file drop down and nothing opens or happens.

I think this Vista machine is the problem, what do you think

 Thanks Dave Barber
