[time-nuts] Lady Heather Software
'486? Gee, even I don't live that far into the stone age... I'm rather surprised that the program works at that speed... I've heard rumors that it is a hideously inefficient hog of system resources that needs at least a full core on a 3 GHz processor ;-) (I know it runs just fine on a 100 Mhz Fujitsu Milan laptop with a Pentium processor) I suspect that at 66,000 seconds and then every 33,000 seconds it will become rather sluggish for a while as it recalculates all the adev values from scratch... BTW, Compaq does have a lot of drivers available for ancient machines... --- The computer is an old 486 Compaq I use for radio Programming and as such, finding updates for the Video Drivers may be a problem !! _ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/196390707/direct/01/ ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Thanks, that works a lot better. Part of the bottom seems cut off, but I can live with that.

Re: [time-nuts] Lady Heather Software
That normally means you're trying to run it at a fullscreen resolution your video card/monitor doesn't support. Try the /vs /f combination to see if a lower resolution will work? Otherwise, you may need to update the video drivers on the machine. -- john, KE5FX > -Original Message- > From: time-nuts-boun...@febo.com [mailto:time-nuts-boun...@febo.com]on > Behalf Of Richard W.
