Re: [Ql-Users] QPC2 v3.40 Beta 3
Now to leave it on overnight to see how this PC treats it coming out of whatever sleep mode it decides to go into tonight! Ho hum, programs left running (Windows Live Mail, QPC2, Skype and a Windows Explorer window) had all locked up by this morning although Windows was responsive enough to restart the machine. So that didn't prove anything after all, sorry. Well, obvious comments about Windoze apart... Dilwyn ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

After hours of messing with the fullscreen mode that I will never get back I've decided to make a somewhat drastic step and remove it altogether. This makes the display driver code infinitely easier to work with. But fear not, another fullscreen mode has taken its place. One that will not allow you to change the display resolution but which will play much nicer with other applications and will hopefully work better and in any other respect. Please give it a chance ;) FSM seems to me to work fine on an Apple Mac plus VWWARE plus windows XP. Pressing CTRL+SHIFT+F12+fn does the trick. However, the delightful WM_MOVEMODE 3, which works well with most windows digs down too far and too erratically to show what's beneath the moving window if this is not the main one. For example, pressing File in QD causes a small window to appear in the main one. If this is moved you either see what's beneath the main window (two layers down) or an array of small lines seemingly unconnected with anything. OK, the small window moves, but it is not as elegant as it should be. Has anyone tried this? George ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

I have been using QPC v3.33 and v3.34 Beta 3, is faster on my Linux laptop. There was no problems with the machine crashing or locking up.

Re: [Ql-Users] QPC2 v3.40 Beta 3
The common factor ALWAYS seems to be WLMail, but as I always have it running it's impossible to tell if that or anti-virus or what causes the problems. I'll try the PC left on overnights with just one program running each time, then try combinations to see if it's one program or a combination. I haven't had time to put the latest QPC2 beta 3 on the netbook, which has Windoze 7 Starter - will report back on that when I get the time. Oops, sorry, top-posted before I realised what I was doing, sorry Tony.
