Iain,

Limewire is a java based platform, so that would account for that - you say you have uninstalled, did you leave it at that or did you re install the java as well. If not, please try that (you can always unistall again if it stops your MoneyAM access again).

Put Java back.Initial problem now

IanT(MoneyAM) - 08 Feb 2006 12:37 - 4095 of 11003

Iain,

Unfortunately, something on your system is causing this conflict, so I can only suggest that you take out the Java and then your MoneyAM will work again. Also would try a windows update, just to make sure you have all applicable security updates.

Anyone else use Trend Micro Internet Security?
Maybe you can help with my lack of stockwatch problem

I think it might be a good idea to get rid of all the Java on your machine and start again.

Start by Control Panel, Remove Programs. See if there is a Java programme in there, if so Remove it. Then check out to see if MoneyAM Level2 works and I think you'll find it does. Hopefully you won't have to do any more Java removal

I used 'Housecall' from TrendMicro and this is what I had to do myself

ThePublisher - 09 Feb 2006 08:23 - 4100 of 11003

I use PC-Cillin if that's any help.

But I don't use any live feeds from MAM if that's the problem area.

But how will I find a bridge without Mapquest?

Hi I would like an opinion on the likely cause of the system not reading my keyboard on boot. ie it is often not being read during the bios displays as well as when windows starts. (i check for this wiht the pause button during boot) I have to switch of and on on the back of the pc the mains itself, sometimes 3 or 4 times before the keyboard is working. rebooting via the reset button or the front power switch does not effect a cure.

I am hoping its only the keyboard and not my mother board. Plugs are in firmly and have been pushed in and out and wiggled. So I dont think its a dry joint on the mothrboard, The keyboard is a logitech which I have had to dis-assemble and clean a couple of times. (due to keysnot making contact and red wine bath) The mother board is a gigabyte.

Kayak - 09 Feb 2006 17:24 - 4103 of 11003

rpaco, best course of action I think is to borrow a keyboard from a friend or from work to see whether it is the keyboard or the motherboard that is faulty. I would suspect the keyboard, given the history of alcohol abuse :-)

The keyboard is powered even when the PC is shut down since it is designed to be able to bring it out of hibernation etc., which is why you have to turn the main power off to reset it.

Logitech have very good customer support and if the keyboard is the problem they may well send you a replacement free of charge or nearly so, if you ask them nicely.

rpaco - 10 Feb 2006 16:50 - 4105 of 11003

Hi yes will see if I can borrow another keyboard or find an old one. (I trade from home so no office to borrow from)
Many thanks

Help! My kids have either been on a website or played a game which has altered the graphics settings, so when I boot their machine up the sreen only says "signal out of range". I've tried booting in safe mode and the part that I want to read is off the screen!!

i'm a bit stuck now - anyone got any ideas?

Kayak - 11 Feb 2006 09:22 - 4107 of 11003

SC, in safe mode, right click on the desktop, Properties, Settings tab and bring back to a sensible setting.

However it should'nt be possible to get the signal out of range message, it indicates that the monitor has not been correctly set up in Windows, so when you can see what you're doing go to Control Panel/System/Device Manager and install the monitor correctly (update driver) so that the model number shows there.

Seymour Clearly - 13 Feb 2006 00:58 - 4108 of 11003

Thanks Kayak, struggling to get it displaying in safe mode. Have to come back to it on Tuesday now as I'm too busy until then.

Stan - 13 Feb 2006 16:23 - 4109 of 11003

...I put this on the other troubleshooting thread but It's a bit busy over there.

Around 6 months ago I tried to log In to MoneyAM down the library but could not as the username was not excepted, went Into my email and found that I had been allocated another U/N.
Yesterday the same thing happened (U/N not excepted)so I just gave up.
Never happened before at home as P/W and U/N are filled In automatically, any Ideas what's happening please?

I use a Mac at home but libaries only have PCs so have no choice but to use them, not sure different operating system should have been significant but I just don't know.

blinger - 13 Feb 2006 16:38 - 4110 of 11003

I use Avant browser, never have trouble.

Stan - 13 Feb 2006 16:56 - 4111 of 11003

Never had trouble with Safari either, but only had this trouble on the library's computers, twice In 3 years.

My sons machine has an integrated graphics card an NVIDIA GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU.
He wants to change the card cos it wont run some of his games.They need a pixel shader enabled card(Or something like that)
Can I just get him a new graphics card and slot it in.Will i have to disable the old one? How???? :-)
If he gets one of the NVIDIA Cards below will it be easier

To run correctly, Black & White 2 requires:

DirectX 9.0c
DirectX 8/9 based Video card which supports at least version 1.1 pixel shaders

Video cards based on the following chipsets are supported:

ATI Radeon 8500 9100 9200 9250 9500 9550 9600 9700 9800 X300 X600 X700 X800 X850

nVidia GeForce 6200 6600 6800 FX5200 FX5500 FX5600 FX5700 FX5800 FX5900 FX5950 PCX5300 PCX5900 Ti4200 Ti4600 Ti4800

If you are experiencing problems with your video card and Black & White 2, try updating your video card driver by
downloading the latest driver available from the video card manufacturer. If there is no improvement, try using the
latest driver provided by the video chipset manufacturer. Your video card chipset is the video processing chip located
on your video card. If there is no information in your video card manual or website, check the video card for an
identifying chip with the chipset manufacturer's name on it.

For AGP cards, you need to make sure your AGP Aperture is set correctly - For 64Mb video cards, you need at least 32mb
of AGP. For cards with 128Mb+, you need at least 64 mb of AGP aperture.
Check your AGP is working by selecting Start Menu->Run dxdiag. If AGP is working, the display tab should show AGP Texture
Acceleration: Enabled
64mb-128mb video cards require 64 - 128 mb of AGP ram on AGP systems
(256mb video cards or PCI express systems do not need this)

If you experience performance issues then please use the command line modifier 'MINSPEC' from the start menu to downgrade
the graphics shaders.

If you are experiencing performance issues on video cards with less than 128Mb of RAM then we recommend using the command
line modifier 'LOWMEM'.
