Are you starting Router manually after the computer has started
and all the automatically loaded software has finished loading
or are you starting it automatically at Windows start?
There is a very large variability in start-up time depending on what
Windows is loading - particularly if several of the Adobe, Google,
Intuit, and Norton programs are all trying to load at start-up. For
those systems used primarily for amateur purposes, I scour the
start-up, disable auto loading of any Adobe (Reader, Flash), Intuit,
Norton, and Google software (typically auto-update applications),
disable unnecessary Windows services, and configure Router to start
after a 15 second delay (allows Windows to initialize/load other
items).
Many users will have from six to 20 automatically loading programs
at start-up and those can be competing with Router for memory and
CPU resources.

Router only starts so slowly when the system has been restarted. Otherwise it
starts rapidly on successive program starts.

The audio tones indicate that Windows needs to *create* the virtual
serial ports each time you start microHAM Router. That is abnormal
and represents a problem in *your Windows installation*.
Start-up time for a typical moderate system (2.1 GHz Core2Duo, 4 GB
RAM) with all current Windows 7/64 updates is around 30 seconds and
will vary depending on what other processes are running when Router
is launched.

Hello everyone
Since I installed Windows 7 on my PC microHAM Device Router functions
differently.
The program takes about 1 minute to start after clicking the program icon. It
also gives 7 banjo tones (audio acknowledgements) during start up. I don't
really care if this is the way the program runs under Win7 - it just seems very
odd.
Anybody else running uHAM Device Router also experience this?
