Reply to New Betas for Decor8 and WindowFX Available with Windows 8.1 Support in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Interesting anomaly - (at least with my system) run WFX BETA at the same time running DS8 and gets the following: "Unable to play dream unable to start DirectX on your machine. Please try rebooting and if is this continues try updating your video drivers" Note: DirectX is actually running when I get this message. It is not enough to shut down WFX B- I need to reboot to choose individual dreams in DS8. Just something to consi

not silly at all - thanks for the reply. yes - checked and re-checked. this ODNT Zapper - this gets rid of everything or can you be selective? i notice when i unload SC now, it goes quickly. i am sure it is now deleting all the associate files. do you know of a programs that will fully clean up just the specific program? i do have CCleaner and have run several times. i am getting the feeling that - at least in the case of my system - it may not be worth the effort at this point.

Reply to Program will not start correctly in KeepSafe Stardock Forums

Just an FYI to y'all who tried to help - thank you. MS SP3 finally won ... beat down into submission, I finally gave up - and yes - started over. Full systen format. I loaded ONLY Windows XP Pro first and only ALL updates for this monster, including the dreaded SP3 (any one remember DOS 4.5?). I have come to the conclusion that Windows wants to be first ALL THE TIME! It has taken 2 weeks to get it all back and some I had to say goodbye too - my system works fine - do I dare say better than befor

Thanks for checkin' around y'all ... it is kinda' sad to have to say au revoir to a fine system. Still, I wonder if anyone might have saved the installer for the program. I have Sysmetrix3 (alas, the old version). If anyone did save it - would you mind sharing the file? Thx Bwolf
