:lol:
oops, I think you feel insulted. Certainly not intentional.

Hi KrisM
I am on my 5th Win7 install - mostly my own fault,
:roll:
:mrgreen: at about 10 minutes an install, I was playing with things like the location of the 200mb boot partition on a particular spindle so I didn't have to use Standalone Acronis DD to zap the alternate partition to active, so I could effectively dual boot Vista not using its booter. - i.e. I was having fun! 8)
It didn't notify me of your reply. (EDIT: I've since modified stuff in profile, so it should now...)
Well done.
yeah lol - missed that one completely - that's a DUH on me!
I did try Heidi 6.04.875b , but when I installed it, take no offence, it was a total joke - it gave me a message saying something like the plugins were bad so it was deleting them, and then presented me with Heidi. which would do absolutely nothing - it was all greyed out, as I recall.
Prior to installing V6 Beta you may have found the following links useful.
Instructions 1
Instructions 2
yep... prolly :lol:
... after 65 years you want/need/expect me to read instructions??? :wink:
Beta tester? Sure. But you gotta give me something much better than what I experienced with 604875!!!!!!!!!!! Not criticizing Joel, but gotta be realistic.
Quality Beta testers are hard to find. :roll:
Are you actually saying that you downloaded Beta software, that was not designed to run on your OS, actually an OS that itself is still in Beta, without following or even reading the Eraser V6 Beta instructions and you are surprised or disappointed that it didn’t work flawlessly ? :shock:
:twisted: Actually, YES. Win7 (6.1) is a mod to Vista (6.0 (6001) ) Virtually everything that worked for me on Vista works on 6.1 - which is still in serious (supposedly)(it's a marketing ploy) beta. barely out of alpha (believe that and I have a great bridge for you!!!!!).
I always jump into these things (3.11, 95, 98, ME, XPrc1,2, etc) fully expecting them to blow up in my face. i have found Acronis to be sufficient insurance for any demise said test may cause to my PC system. Then I can have fun. Been doing this since mainframes 7070 and 1401 / 1620 / 360 25/40/50/60/70 370 / 3330 etc. It is simply how I have fun. I don't claim to know anything other than how to protect my system!!! :evil: :mrgreen:
Joel has done remarkable work on V6. I believe you are the first person to claim V6 is a “total joke”. Yes there have been bugs, but that is why we have Beta’s, V6 is a total rewrite of V5 so actually there have been relatively very few bugs considering.
I eagerly await your code submissions to amend Joel’s work. :wink:
I'll get right on the de-compiler and should have it ready by this morning. :wink: Oh wait, I think some guy over in cz has already hacked it - I'll grab a copy of that... :wink:
If that is useful, you can email me a file any time,
You are welcome to check the Eraser news page whenever you wish.
Eraser Current Releases
again. LOL.
Now, if I have insulted you, that was not my intention, but so be it. 99.9% of software and hardware that worked for me under Vista has worked w/o mod under Win 7 - actually only a TEAC external floppy (USB code 10), an HP8250 scanner full driver and only because it actually checks the release, and MS's own Gadgets - the support simply isn't there yet, and I never used it anyway. Even lowly Yahoo had a new release in a day that allowed Widget engine an install to 6.1.
I know nothing.
Perhaps you need the kind of support I cannot give.
In any case I wish you all well and bright blessings!
