Hoster 5.02 Computer screen words jumbled

[Roy Dennis]

Maybe you have something else running in the background.
Try this, with Hoster running bring up the task manager (ctrl+alt+delete) click the processes tab. Now if you look at the CPU column most of the things are showing 00 or not more than 10 except system idle which is a total of free usage and usually around 90-99.
With your extended monitor connected start Hoster playing until your graphics start to get jumbled and look down the CPU column and see if anything other than Hoster is using higher than say 10, something may stick out to you that is unusually high, if so jot down the name of it and any other info related to it and report back your findings.

One other point that may help, have you defrag your C drive ? you should find this from Start/Programs/accessories/System Tools/defrag hard drive.
I should make sure if you start this that you don't need to use your computer for a couple of hours as it can take some time.

I have the same problem with the jumbled lyrics screen on the control panel. It's fine on the singer display, but doesn't refresh on the host panel- docked in the default position or undocked. Occasionally it works but most of the time it's unreadable. I have 4g ram and plenty of hard drive space and the problem began with the last version of Hoster 4 and continues now with 5. All other applications closed, virus protection is disabled, etc.

This is a dell 2400 desktop. I do normally have pcdj red 5.2 running in background for a dj break but unless i am adding songs or doing something with it does not use much in resources. I have always had it up running in background. This computer has not had any problem until i went to 4.32 and now with the 5.xx version of hoster. the other desktops are running the same video cards and have no problems. That is why i thought it was unusual. I know this an older computer and will eventually b updating because with the new programs it does slow down the song searches noticeably.

Would you both post a report in the following link. That way all problems with 5.02 are in the same locations, so Admin can look at them and schedule for testing.

If you are running PJCJ and Hoster, even if PCDJ is not running it is consuming RAM, and with 1GB, I expect you don't have enough for both.

Close PCDJ and see if Hoster runs as expected.
