Hello all...I purchased a Laptop Win11 computer as I was ready to transfer my DX labs and various other application for my shack computer. I spent a $1000 dollars for 32 gigs ram and 1TB SSD and found that the computer would not connect to the internet. The network adapter was not stable and would not allow connection for more than a minute....The computer slowed down to a crawl and would not turn off or restart. Then the BSOD would show up while restarting then the computer would reboot and connect for a minute and then lose all internet connectivity. My computer guys who are hams told me that it is systemic and wished me well.

Conclusion I think at this time with the plethora of issues with this operating system I am going to pay the, I hope, yearly fee for the Win10 support. I worked two weeks for nothing. I pulled the battery out of the Lap top and put it with the other dead computers. I can only hope the MS stabilizes this software or junks it like Win 8, but flogging a dead horse is a waste of time and has seriously impacted time on the air.?
?
I have also been told that a large number of hams are switching to Linux and abandoning MS.?
?
In conclusion I enjoy running DX Labs and have done so for 12 years. It is my sincere hope that MS stabilizes this software so that it is able to run DX Labs as well as my other Ham peripherals on a stable operating platform.

Thanks for the bandwith for my rant...I am out a grand and frustrated beyond belief.? BTW I am not feeling lucky.? ?Jim K5KND
