New Computers


 

Many years ago I used UI-View for many things. But I got out of it for a
while.

But now getting back in,

Now I did have of course a registered copy.

Now what do I do if I want to install it on my main home desktop, and a
laptop.

Do I just download it all over gain and make new registrations? or do I
recover the old registration somehow?

What is the best preferred way?

Just download UI-View32 from www.ui-view.net and install it. If you are on anything newer than XP, do not install it below Program Files.

If you have the old registration information, just use it. If you still have UI-View installed on an old computer, you could retrieve a copy of uireg.bin and place it in the installation folder. If you don't have the registration information, just follow the registration link on the UI view website. Click on the appropriate flag for English language, enter your name and call sign, and come back in a day or two to retrieve the registration information.

For North American users, PMap 9 (Precision Mapping 9.0) along
with PMapServer 9 can provide street level mapping for all of North
America. They can be installed without hassle on Windows 7 & 8.
PMapServer is available for download on the UI-View website.
However, Undertow Software is no longer selling new copies of
PMap 9, but existing owners can continue to use it as long as they
can get it registered.

Users of Windows Vista, 7 or 8 should not install UI-View below
Program Files. Instead, create a folder elsewhere. To view UI-View's
built-in context sensitive help file, download and install WinHlp32.exe.

If you are running Win7 now, I'd go with it. No real reason to change to
Win8 or 10 (at least until more is know about Win10 and its many bugs)
I've already seen folks complaining about a delay start bug on legacy
software and UI-View which is legacy also

I am personally holding off on win10 for I dont like to be on the bleeding
edge of issues with new OS's...

To recover your UI-View info including the APRS-IS password, go here and
submit again, there is a placde to let them know you are a returning user
and the info will pop up almost instantly...

It's not just the early adopters' headaches. One also needs to consider that
Win 10 will be a moving target changing ENDLESSLY with FORCED updates!

Microsoft has stated that Win 10 will be the last discrete version of Windows
ever. They will be endlessly evolving it with updates, rather than new major
versions. These updates will be FORCED into your system , with no choice to
review and opt out of them like previous Windows versions.

(There have already been a chorus of complaints, since the Jul 29th release, in
the computer/tech media about forced Nvidia video driver updates that have
broke numerous installations. )

Unless you disconnect a Win 10 system PERMANENTLY from the Internet (which
would render UIview useless as an igate), you will be dealing with an endlessly
moving target. I.e. just because you got UIview working with Win 10 this week
won't mean it will work a week, a month or a year later.....

I suspect we will be soon seeing some sort of tricky firewall add-ons that will
black-hole requests to Microsoft Internet addresses, while allowing
communications elsewhere. There are already third-party utilities to remove
the nagware to update to Windows 10 that MS has stealth-loaded into millions of
Win 7 and Win 8 systems in the guise of a "security update". The most
ironically-named one is called "I_DONT_want_Windows_10.exe" .

Response from my IT guy. He once was the eight year old who fixed all my
computer problems! See below. Steve kb1chu

If they can get professional versions of windows 10 they can prevent updates from being installed. They can then disable driver signing as well. Probably the only viable workaround at the moment.

I switched all 4 computers to WIN 10 and everything is running okay including UI-View.

I would suggest you upgrade WIN 7 or WIN 8 to Windows 10 because you have 30 days
that you can go back if for some reason you don't like Windows 10 for one reason or another.


I'm having no problems that would make me switch back so far.


 

In Win10 can you still run XP programs in Compatibility mode like you can on Win7?

Great idea! Yes you can run older programs like Uiview32 in compatibility mode, I run mine in Windows XP Service pack 3 mode!
However, on all my PC's running Windows 10, when I do a restart of my PC, the very first time I start Uiview (and yes in Admin mode) it remains stuck in a wait chain Que for several hours.
If I kill this launch of Uiview and try again, every successive start after the first one opens and runs normally, until I restart my PC again, and that first launch of Uiview just hangs!
Whilst having to kill the first launch of Uiview and then launch again is no big deal, anyone that wants their Uiview to run on an unattended PC will obviously find the wait time a problem!

The so-called "Compatibility Mode" was actually a virtual machine (MS Virtual
PC 2007) running a full-blown copy of Windows XP inside of Win 7.

This virtual machine is NO LONGER being supplied with Win 10. However, you
could install a third-party virtual machine (Virtual Box or VMware player) and
then install WinXP into it from a standard XP install CD or CD-image file (.ISO
file).

I have three copies of UIview running on my dedicated Ham Server setup. One is
running directly on the Win7-64 host. The other two are running in two VMware
virtual machines, each of which has a full-blown WinXP SP3 install in it. The
one on the host is my 30-meters HF APRS igate and UIwebserver. The other two
are the usual 144.39 2M VHF igate and a dedicated satgate on 145.825 for the ISS.

You can see the results of all three running on a single Acer netbook PC here:

Versions of the freeware VMware player and Virtual Box tested and blessed for
use with Win 10 are already available.
