EMIII not working.

[PsycoKillr]

Ok i'm sure by now you guys might be thinking I'm crazy but that's ok because I am. I've tried removing and unzipping the EM111 files with the updates and everything but it doesn't work. I'm not sure if it's me(which it probably is) or the EM111. can someone give me a hand? I promise after this I won't bother you guys. (much) lol I appreciate the help and quick replies that I've gotten from all of you. :vimp:

Do you get the little microscope in the lower right corner?

[PsycoKillr]

well i'm i'm really flustered. I've tried repeatedly to get the EM111 working but it refuses to. my task manager says it's running but nothing will show up on my screen or in the task bar. HELP ME:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[Donut]

I don't remember the actual work-around for your problem so..
End task, delete everything and start over. When you set it up Don't check "Run em3 in stealth mode".

Make sure you get rid of all EM3 files before you re-install. I usually leave mine in the Unzipped file, and put a shortcut on the desktop until I get it configured.

I'm sure there is an easier way, I just happen to know this one.

[PsycoKillr]

well I tried deleting all the files and reinstalling the EM111 but to no avail. it runs in my task manager but not on my desktop. :aol: I think I'm going to give up on the EM111 for now.

Ok I have been working on the EM111 for the past 2 days trying to get it to work properly. It is running in my task manager but I can't see it anywhere. I've deleted every file associated with the EM and D/Led it several times but with the same results. I could really use some help with this situation. I appreciate anyones time and patience with this matter.:respect:

Try this suggestion I found on Google:

Yep, other way is:

make a copy of any program in the EM folder.
name the copy show.me

within 30 seconds EM should appear.

make sure you go to the options menu and clear the stealth mode check box.

[PsycoKillr]

Well I tried that and still nothing. I guess I'll just have to do w/out an EM. :banghead: :bawling:

[Park_7677]

One more suggestion:

Start > Run > regedit (press enter)

Navigate to:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\EM3\Settings]

Change "StealthMode" to "0". Kill EMIII in the TaskManager and restart it.

awesome Park that worked. thank you very much. now i feel 100% complete and ready to become a folding maniac

[PsycoKillr]

ok it's working but still looks weird like it did when i first had it working earlier this week. here's an attatchment of what it looks like.

You haven't done anything wrong. It actually looks like EMIII is working correctly. The reason that the EMIII window is rendering so strange is probably due to a low screen resolution on your monitor. What is your monitor's resolution set to? 1024X768? Lower? The EMIII window does not scale well to lower screen resolutions.

[PsycoKillr]

it's at 1280 x 1024. i set it to the max but it's still showing the same way.

Just for troubleshooting purposes, click the white icon that looks like a little piece of paper and set the View Change to something other than "(1) Client View". If it's not already on "(1) Client View", set it to that. Experiment and see if any of them make for a change.

You might try changing the skin, too, just to see if that makes a difference. :)

[PsycoKillr]

Bingo. Thanx Prof that did it. :celebrate I knew there was a reason I liked this site more than any other I've been to. You guys and gals know what you're doing. :respect:

[PsycoKillr]

Here's a pic of my EM. it looks ok but the time remaining area is screwy. everything else is good though. any idea how to fix that?

[Park_7677]

You fonts look a little large to me. Are you using a larger font-size in your current theme? Or perhaps using 120 DPI (instead of the default 96 DPI)?

[PsycoKillr]

well i changed the DPI to 96 and it works. now i just have to get used to the super small font. lol :D
