Hahaha I agree !!
I really still can't fathom WHY you would want an app. Like this. Ok, if they are blind it might be helpful if it played a sound, but clearly the users are a bit simple, so maybe the reward system will be the best way forward ;-) Jeremy From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz [mailto:delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz] On Behalf Of Paul A Norman Sent: Tuesday, 15 September 2009 21:14 To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: Re: [DUG] Has Windows finished?? Is it possible that the User could be trained to look at the screen and when major activity has stoped taking place they could start using the mouse? Each time they sucessfully do this they could be given a TimTam or something. It is possible though that after this training, even just hearing the Windows startup jingle could cause them to salivate. Some fellow called Pavlova and Afghan biscuits or something comes to mind. Paul 2009/9/15 Jeremy Coulter <jscoul...@gmail.com> yeah that was another idea I had. Prob. once again was consistance around the app. really being hte last thing to run so to speak. Its ok now< I have managed to convince all involded its a stupid idea :-) Jeremy On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 8:45 AM, Robert martin <r...@chreos.co.nz> wrote: Hi Not sure if this is possible but what you could do is have the app install as a service that sets itself last (or late, or after whatever it is you want to ensure has started) in the startup list. This should give you a good idea when everything is loaded. Rob Jeremy Coulter wrote: Hi all. Is there API or SOMETHING that I can call or look at that will tell me if windows has finished "Loading". i.e. all the programs that windows has to load have finshed loading etc. etc. I guess I can look at the CPU usage, but not sure how good thisis. What if one of the programs being loaded is a CPU hog because the machine is a bit of a dog etc. Anyone got any ideas?
