Title: VMSpc and Vista Issues
Post by: Brad on February 22, 2012, 08:06:42 pm
I just wanted to see if anybody else was encountering issues with VMSpc and Vista.  My hard drive crashed and took my XP with it.  I have not had a chance to restore it with XP or Win 7.  I did have an old Vista disc and have the computer working again, but my VMSpc shuts down every 5 or up to 20 minutes latter :-(.  I have to shut the program down and then reopen....that is a drag while your driving.  I called Silverleaf and they told me to check to make sure the program was not installed under the program file directory as that could be the issue and it's not.  Before I uninstall and try again I wanted to ask the group if anyone else had this issue.  I have used the program twice since Vista was installed and had no issue  It just started after I upgraded to 2.5 build 10 software.  I at least have Retarder Temp, although the readings were low.  It seems the multiplier needs to be set to 2...I guess I missed reading that information.

Thanks for all the help,

I use the same set up but have had no problems with it to date. I have not up graded like you did though. Also, I don't have the setting for retarder temperature.

Sam,
I completely removed the old version and did a new install on 2.5 build 10 this morning.  I drove 4 hours today without any issues and the retarder temp works great. 

Thanks,
