This isn't fun anymore!

Since I have one laptop running XP and the other VISTA. I will admit I have relied heavily on the XP laptop for my shows. However, I have recently installed 4.06 on my VISTA laptop, and I find that Hoster is running fine, I no longer have the graphics lag problem, nor any other problems.

So don't feel discouraged about HOSTER in either VISTA or XP. These folks at MTU put a lot of time and effort into their product because they believe in it...Its hard to find that kind of dedication these days. Especially when it comes to software. A lot of companies farm their work overseas, not MTU.

So don't Give up the Ghost!

I have had more trouble with 4.0? than i have ever had with any Mtu product. Heck!!! i removed one copy of 4.05 from a laptop yesterday, Over the internet and today i can not install on brand new computer. I even wrote support before i did the removal. to make sure my copies were free. I believe VISTA (playing with) has hurt the average KJ using Hoster. It is embaresing, when your computer crashes 3 or 4 times a night, lyrics are out of sink. I used to be top dog around here, because i used hoster, now I am Just a puppy. I am afraid to do anything with the computer doing a show for fear it will make the computer crash. I also belive the support ticket issue needs to be looked at, the last 3 times i never recieved an answer to my ticket, only a recieved message. I own 2 versions of hoster, only run XP, even my new laptop was ordered with xp, and I would sure like to install one of my 4 available programs on it.

I've been using Vista all year & I've had some problems, but nothing like you are talking about. First of all, if you're going to upgrade, you should not Un-install first, but just upgrade. You should also SAVE all your downloads in your Download folder so you always have whatever you need at any given time. I have gone back & forth from 4.0x & back to 3.321, then up to 4.03, to 4.05 and now to 4.06 and have not had any trouble with registrations. You can't blame everything on MTU.

MTU had problems with 4.0 too, which is why they worked so hard to get it right - I belive 4.06 is the answer to everyone's problems!

And, when all else fails, as long as you have an older copy of Hoster still on your computer that worked for you, as a last resort you can also use Window System Restore, while you're waiting on new registration codes.
