Need help with Back (system Crashed)(DALE HELP)

[Skybird74]

If your Vista is only 6 months old, you should be able to take it to where to bought it & have them fix it, if you don't know how. They should either fix it or give you another machine. There is no way that Hoster "fried" your hard drive!!!

Can you boot up so that you can do a "factory restore"? If it willl not "boot up" on it's own, when you turn it on, can you access the CD-ROM? If so, you can put in the recovery disk & it can fix itself from there.

Did you follow ALL the Hoster "requirements" and turn everything OFF that was suggested before you installed Hoster? Sounds like a bunch of conflicts.

No I know Hoster did not fry my hard drive that never crossed my mind I am just saying the computer crapped out I am going to do what you suggested however, It won't even get past the boot up so And yes I did turn off everything before Hoster was installed I have not had any problems with Hoster It is the computer, I was just wanting to put it back on my Home pc to use as a back up because the other comp is shot.
I just don't want to have to buy another Hoster App until after the first of the year when I get a couple of more computers I have a total of three computers at home 2 lappies and one desktop (one lappy is of no use as of Friday My main Lappy is still up and running I want to put Hoster Back on my Home PC or Back up til I get the other lappy fixed or until I buy a new one)

I've got 2 laptops & desktop at home, also. Yes, you can put Hoster on a different machine at home, as long as only register Hoster on 2. I read somewhere in the Forum, that it will not be neccessary to go thru Admin to re-set your registration, elliminating the need to un-install from 1 computer just to put it on a different one. I used to keep Hoster on my desktop & 1 laptop. When I purchased another laptop, and upgraded Hoster, I just installed on 2 laptops & didn't do the desktop. When Hoster connects to MTU, the registrations are checked.

Go ahead and put Hoster on whatever other machine you want & there should be some kind of message allowing you to transfer regsitration from 1 computer to another. MTU keeps track of how machines you have and your registration numbers.

If you have Hoster already installed on two, you will need to uninstall from one before you will be able to install on a different PC.

So, Mike, I see you have Vista. So, how is Hoster working on yours? I haven't seen anything from you regarding all the problems other Vista users are having??? ... mostly video complaints

My Vista Laptop is working perfectly in dual screen mode with 4.04 - as is my XP PC.
The only problem I have with 4.04 is that it will not automatically convert my old playlists that originally contained a lot of HDZIP to HDMP3G. Which means I have to redbuild any old playlists I want to use.
Sorry I can't think of anything helpful to add that might fix your problem.

Not sure how you can do that if you cant remove from the down lappy. But im sure if you let mtu know what has happened they can free the code for you to install again on what ever machine you like.

Thanks. That was very useful information for me. I use Playlists constantly, especially for myself since most of my gigs are me doing all the singing. But if it's just the zip to mp3g files, then maybe I'll be OK. I put together most of my playlists before I learned about converting files to zip for storage. Personally, I haven't had a problems yet, because I only have 4. on my backup & still using 3.321 for Shows. So, I haven't used it enough to find any quirks yet. I was trying to help KaraokeDJ...

This is what I am unable to do due to the other computer crashing so how do I Take it off the comp that drashed to install on the other computer.

[Skybird74]

I know Mike said that you have to do that. However, as I said it has been posted on this Forum by Admin that would not be necessary in future versions. So, it is possible that this is true in 4.0x. You don't have anything to lose by installing it in your other machine. When you connect to MTU, they may transfer the registration for you. It's worth a try.

If you can't reinstall on another machine then put a support ticket in to MTU explaining your problem, I'm sure they would be able to help there. They have in the past to other Hoster users.
