[gradsusr] Run GRDAS in windows 7

[hassan quamrul]

Dear Venkat,

Installing a loopback adapter solved the problem. That can be done from the Device Manager in the Control Panel. Just choose "Add legacy hardware" from the "Action" menu there, 
click on Next, then choose "Install the hardware that I manually select from the list (Advanced)" and click Next, choose "Network adapters", then proceed to the next step and wait for the
lists to be populated. Choose "Microsoft" as the manufacturer, and finally "Microsoft Loopback Adapter". Let the newly created adapter initialize and that should do the trick.

Dear Venkat,

Based on my experience, this ‘GXSTRT unable to connect to X server’ is more related to Internet connexion. I mean I have OpenGrads in both Vista and Windows 7. When I am connected to the Internet, I have no problem running Grads. However, if I am not connected to the Internet, I receive this message.
Hope it can help.

Cheers,
Serge
