Good one.Have you tried uninstalling AVC?If that is a no go do a search in the forum at AVC site for this poroblem.http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~serio/vc/

Hello,Try uninstalling your AVC and reinstalling your AVC. This time when you install it, try using the WAV input/output selection for recording and playback.Also make sure that all audio programs are disabled prior to starting up. Including instant messengers.

Dave, Still having the problem of AVC not loading when I start SB. I have to manually start AVC and then type in the servervoice channel. Then it works OK, but is a pain to have to do this every time I start. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling AVC, but not SB. Would that help?Thanks

You do have the box check on the login screen of SB saying Use Roger Wilco voice?Once you have started it and selected a voice room, will it auto swtich after that?This is a new one to me :( Did Roger Wilco work find for you? I think some where on the SB menu there is something like 'Decode Voice IP r from ATIS' or something like that make sure that is check or not checked based on the wording.

Answers: Yes, box is checked. Don't know. Haven't had two voice controllers in a row to check. I'll let you know. Yes, RW used to work. AVC also worked until I auto -installed the Howard. I will check the Decode Voice IP from ATIS next time I fly.Thanks a lot for all the help.
