V-Bar slowing down PC???

[Foamy Love]

I seen to have a real problem with everything on my PC slowing to a crawl. whenever I'm trying to make adjustments to my V-Bar.

Mostly, the problem is with the mouse. I find myself having to click multiple times (usually 20 or more) to accomplish a task. That is if the mouse will even move at all.

Must be something isolated to your system as far as what tasks you may have running while doing your Vbar stuff as mine does not even notice the Vbar softwarre running. Have you went into your system or at least your task bar and disable every other program to see what may be doing this?

Funny thing is that I don't have any other programs running.

I used to have the same problem with the Castle Link software until I updated the .net framework. I checked but there are no Windows updates that I'm missing.

I figured that its an isolated occurance since I'm the first to complain about this. I'm going to try it on my PDA tomorrow and I'll be looking for a windows emuliator for my Mac notebook.

Its just a real shame that the software doesn't work with OS X.

Open your task manager, go to the 'processes' tab and sort by CPU to see what process is taking up most of your computing time. Sounds like there might be some USB conflict when you plug in the V-bar.

I can't imagine what would cause the conflict as I have 6 USB ports and only 3 are in use. One is for the V-Bar and the other two are my printer and my iPod. I'll double check the task manager and sort by CPU when I get home tonight.


I'm really hopping I can get the software to work on my PDA smartphone so I can make tewaks at the field.

I forgot that I also had the Interlink controller pluged in as well. Aperantly, with the interlink pluged in, the USP ports don't have enough power to run all 4 items. If I keep the interlink unpluge, everything is just fine.
