4.05 ran without a glitched

[JNS02]

OK, I ran my show Wed. Night and I could not get sync right in 4.05 (Vista). I tried everything that I read in the forum. Only good thing about wed. show, is that it is just me singing to the Veterans and I could over come this obstecal. 3.4 was not in sync either. I had to do System restore to go back to 4.03. I will stay with that version until 4.10 comes out or I can afford another computer with XP. And to all of MTU's programmers and Admin. Hats off to all of you. All the crap that we send back to you on the problems Vista has caused must be a real pain for you all. I am comfortable running 4.03. I applaude you and thanks.

This is your perogative, but since most of the problems turn out to be computer/operating system setup that causes it, then you may be waiting a long time to upgrade.

Doesn't matter what Windows I'm using I am having the same result.

I have two computers upgraded to Hoster 4 one XP sp 3, as adviced by MTU, and one Vista Ultimate 32.

Yes, it does matter! XP & Vista have different requirements prior to installing Hoster. You also didn't mention which Hoster 4 version - there are 5 updates. It also matters if you upgraded from 3.x (which one) directly to 4.05 or if it was a new install. It also matters whether you did the computer updates before or after you installed Hoster, and if you followed ALL of MTU's recommendations

Most people seem to be doing well with 4.05 on both Vista & XP. Others, including myself, find that 4.03 is working without any problems on Vista, while my 6-year old HP-XP, with lots of other programs installed and only 512 RAM, will run 4.05.

You must take everything into consideration before making a general statement that Hoster just doesn't work

What I meant with "it doesn't matter" is that I have both of the OS with the same result Vista is running Hoster 4.05 and XP is running 4.03. This is not a general statement since it does not matter which one I use I have the same results. What it really matters is that Hoster 4 is affecting the quality of my shows.

Suprise suprise. And this is news????

Ricky try upgrading the XP machine to 4.05 and I think your problems will dissappear on that machine. You don't have anything to lose in doing it and may gain back a good machine for shows.

Last week when I downloaded 4.05 and ran it for 4 or 5 hours, everything seems fine. The next day try again with optimous results. third day did it again work just as good as 4.03 . Then gig day on Monday as I plug my video cord out to the tv network, bum out of sync and now still out of syc. I know you guys are trying hard, and may be we are all egger to run a show from start to finish with all the great features that it has. I think i"ll go back to 4.03 and Ill be waiting for 4.06 to try again.
