Yes, the PC does not go into sleep mode anymore and all is very responsive in minOS mode. So far things keep running nicely, even after some time (+hours) not doing anything with the PC.

Bert

I figured those out myself before (clicking the energy settings did not respond in MinOS, so what to do next....) and changed those settings under normal OS conditions.

All was fine here already before responding, I just wanted to share the experience of having a "dead" PC...

Bert

I have something "similar" but then related to the sleep mode of the PC (unattended).

The only way to get the PC back to life is to turn off the power and then start the PC again.

Alt-X is not a problem here when XX is playing.

Bert

I am now... 

Bert

I still can't get into minimized... it seems to go all through but at the end it comes up with a message that I should contact Phasure because it can't boot into minimized?

I see "wait", then a question about restore and then about continue and then the screen truns dark and then the message pops up that it can't!!!!

It looks similar to a situation where things were XX is not activated but it is (or isn't it activated properly afterall?).

Blehhh...updates!!! YAK

I am out for a while, not in the mood to stay behind a PC

It seems yes but Ultimate Tweaks do not work as the processor does not seem to be too busy and temperatures stay low...but perhaps the cooling is great? 

I can't get into minimized with the Ultimate option selected...

Use Settings or No XTweaks gives no error and going into minimized mode is not a problem.

Bert

Perhaps Sunday I have the time for new trials...

Good! At least for me, not for you... I do not have the problems you describe.

I have 1.03 installed as well.

Bert

Dear Stanley & Jud,

Reading through this topic and you telling that your amp is going in to safety mode means that it thinks there is something wrong ...and the only thing that comes to mind is that your amp does not like DC at its input and that you should NOT use PA.

Or install an input capacitor in your amps and you're free to go..

Perhaps I am wrong but that is what my recovering brain is telling me...

Bert

My ears (not just that!) are out of service for one week... some f*king virus caught me by surprise.

Bert

Great but I will not remove the line from my short Update Notes list before seeing it working like that myself.

I will just go back to normal OS before updating anything anyhow, most other things just do not work out as well in minimized OS too...

Bert

Yes, there was but useless if minimized does NOT support for this (not even using F8 during booting).

Bert

But hey, things are working here okay now with my fresh W7 installation and Windows updates will not bother me anymore and no scary windows sounds either because I killed that before it could make noise and so forth... I should write my own installation guide to prevent that I forget something and need again at least one hour of frustration to get things working properly again.

Updates? Blehhh...

BTW. On my normal PC windows NEVER updates when I reboot, even if there are some waiting. Only when I shutdown the PC then it will start updating or of course when I manually want to update. No special settings here, just plain standard windows settings.

No, I am not mixing things. Each OS has its own directory and its own XXData folder.


I know why you ask but nevertheless nothing further will come out of my problems with this now though because one other problem occured while being in (a) normal state (to try...). All worked fine finally until I hit the button to go minimized and agreed to reboot.

XX never worked again or even showed up. It crashes with short bliep (popup) on the screen without leaving me a hint...

What happened this time?

While rebooting from normal to minimized OS I noticed that Windows started to install 38 new updates without asking beforehand. Nice, but that should ONLY happen when I shut down the PC (if I want to update) and NOT while rebooting windows.

I am installing a new W7 version at this very moment and I will generate a new activation code through PayPal.

Bert

I am apparently the only one who can't and see a popup telling me that it is not possible in DEMO mode.


My old activation number does not seem to work anymore and getting a new one is impossible becuase there is NO network connection (minimized mode remember?).

I did try one last thing (just remembered) and that seems to work finally.

I still had a very old activated XX folder (3 versions before!) and copied the XXHighend1xx.dat file from there to the newly "installed" folder.

Bert

The installation is not a problem on its own.

Its the present situation of XX where I am not able to activate nor able to bring the OS back in normal state just because XX is not activated...

And if XX is not activated then other functions do not work either as it is in DEMO mode...
