Hi Aaron
I have had cause to re-install VRPC-AdjustSA on my laptop (a Dave Atkins special). There was no problem with the program itself, just that I'd done something to cause a couple of 'Object not local' messages during boot up and which I couldn't cure.
I've been through your Tech Support Assistant and the FAQ and the Manual and done a search of this forum but have had no luck.
I intend to upgrade to RISC OS 6.1 so I wanted a completely clean installation with no hang-overs from the previous one. My data and applications are on a separate mount in My Documents so after un-installing the program, I deleted the contents of HardDisc4. I then ran CCleaner to sort out any bits and bobs hanging about in the registry, rebooted the machine and went through the install process. I only installed the main components, the floppy driver and DirectX. I wasn't sure that I needed to do the last two but didn't thik it could do any harm. I hope they aren't famous last words.
I carried out the three upgrades (in order, as instructed) from the download section of your site and replaced DrivePop and SetAccess prior to the OS upgrade.
After one or two self-inflicted hiccoughs, I have a bare setup which operates just fine until I hit <Alt><Return> to put it in a window. The window is largely grey with a blank (black) window outlined in the top left-hand corner. I have a copy of this window if you need to see it. Behind this window is an error message from VRPC saying 'Unknown DirectDraw error (0x80004001)'. Indeed, the same error manifested itself when I first ran VRPC after installation and hit <Alt><Return> to put it into full screen mode.
Clicking on OK doesn't do anything significant and the program becomes unresponsive. Clicking on the windows close icon doesn't seem to do anything or if it does it's doing it very slowly. <Ctrl><Alt><Delete> to bring up the Windows task manager shows two copies of the program running, one with the correct icon and the other with the default .exe icon. Ending either of them brings up the message telling me that the program isn't responding. Telling it to 'End now' does close it down but, again, very slowly. Looking at the running processes tab shows only one copy running and not taking up much CPU time - perhaps 6 or 7%. After about half a minute, dumprep.exe gets into its stride, works itself into frenzy of about 15% CPU time and VRPC closes down at a crawl with the window disappearing from the top down over a period of 5 or 6 seconds.
I've re-installed the program to try and get it working properly but without success. I can send you VA.cfg and (StrongARM) Model.cfg if you need to see them.
Do you have any advice as to where I go from here? No rude answers please!
