trouble with vista
« on: June 02, 2011, 06:23:02 PM »
Hello

Help needed please.

I have just changed the laptop which I run my airnav box on.

Problem is that everytime I shut it down (proper way) when I start it up again it freezes on the start screen.  I press cancel and the program shuts down.

I then have to reload the program and it then works fine.

I am running Vista Home Premium.

Any ideas on how to solve.

I am away this weekend so if you answer I will not respond until Sunday at least.

Thank you for all your help.


Vista is totaly updated and I am using AVG free 2011 and Zonealarm


Again thanks for any help

Charlie

I take it you have set up AVG to ignore the Airnav folder and have avoided installing Airnav in the default program files location?

Yes I have avoided putting airnav in the default program.

I have put in another and it still works once but after shutting down and restarting it starts but when you press start (in the screen that says 'account' and 'cancel' it stops dead.  The only way out is to cancel.

Any more idea's.   It's strange that it starts once but then stops.  It worked great on my old windows xp laptop but not on vista.

Are there any patches for vista?

Help again

Cheers
Charlie

When you exit RadarBox, run the task manager and check that RadarBox is not running in the background (or failed to exit fully).

Otherwise we haven't heard of this. We assume you are also running RadarBox as admin?

Just got back from a great weekend camping with a little bit of ham radio but back to the airnav box.

It's not running in the back ground but when I opened the icon and pressed run as admin it now works fine.


Thank you for all your help
