Hello,
I've been a member here for a long time, but I seldom post. I do enjoy reading through the forum very much, though. I'm always amazed by the wealth of knowledge here. Tonight, I have a problem.
My station is a Vantage Pro2, wireless. It's connected to a dedicated pc via WeatherLink serial, v5.8.3. It's been running faithfully for almost 8 years. Over the weekend, the pc's hard drive failed. I bought a new Windows 7 PC, installed WeatherLink and have the station uploading to FindU and Weather Underground again. The problem is that I don't see a folder with my station's name in the WeatherLink directory, and there is no .wlk file. I have not copied over my backup copy of that folder from the old computer.
While trying to create a shortcut in the WeatherLink directory to drag into the Windows Startup folder, I found Windows wouldn't allow me to create the shortcut. I changed the permissions thinking that may have been the problem, but that doesn't seem to have been it, either. I followed the WeatherLink install manual, checked the Help files, and looked through Davis' Knowledge Base. I feel like I'm missing something obvious, but I can't figure out what. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Judy
