Description

I knew Windows 2000 is antique but hoping CHIRP support.
"chirpw.exe" halts and content of error report file :
the "chirpw.exe" notepad file with these

File "chirpw", line 25, in
File "gtk_init_.pyo", line 40, in
File "gtk_gtk.pyo", line 12, in
File "gtk_gtk.pyo", line 10, in __load
ImportError: DLL load failed:

Both installer and zip version tried.
As my radio is Baofeng UV-5R,
is there any alternative to use old version with
UV-5R support or any ways to solve this issue?

Thanks

One alternative would be to install & configure Python with GTK, and run chirp from the source code. It might be a bit challenging to do though, as that OS hasn't been supported for a while.

Nope, sorry. Microsoft doesn't support the OS anymore, nor do the myriad of dependencies on top of which chirp is built.
