Have a joyous Canada Day. Think I will enjoy it by watching the Queens Cup tomorrow and coffee at Tim Hortons on Monday. Best I can do in eastern Kentucky. Could pull out my Don Cherry bobblehead and sing "Oh Canada" but with my voice the doll might slap me.
Truly appreciate my neighbor to the north and the Fete du Canada.

I just started using it at the beginning of June but it has happened for at least 2 weeks. There are three other things I've noticed Ted. 1) When switching races it tends to crash (a lot). It will try to go to the next race then CTD (no BSOF or any other error, just back to the desktop). 2) If you leave RDSS sit without any key inputs, for 5-10 minutes, it is likely to crash when trying to use it again. 3) When using live during a race you have to re-assemble the next race to get the live tote working.

Can't speak for Smart Screen but I run Avast for AV so Defender is disabled.

Could anyone recently (or always) experiencing slowness or 'not responding' problems with the current version please first try to disable the tote system (again, see http://paceandcap.com/forums/showpos...&postcount=251) and if necessary also disable Windows SmartScreen (google how).

Your responses will help me troubleshoot and correct things as soon as I can.

Thank you!

Ted

I've never had any type of slowness with the program - just the problems mentioned above. FWIW - I run hard wire to the cable modem. Is there anyway to enable a bug trap to write to an error log Ted?

I'm new to this thread too. I've been experiencing the same problems, just the last few weeks. Before that the latest version worked well.

I downloaded yesterday and did a couple races with no problems. Today all I'm getting is a spinning wheel and whiteouts. With enough patience it'll display but trying to do a race and going from horse to horse or screen to screen was pure drudgery. I gave it up for the day.


HELP,

Go figure today everything works fine, even with the cards from yesterday. I did run my malware and defender last night. Perhaps something was fragmented yesterday.


Has this been a fix for anyone else?

I would say mid April would be the start, but moreso lately. Especially the 'not responding" issue. it occurs several times a day even with only one venue open.

Mine is once

I just got 1 spinner yesterday and it was with many windows open


My dad has a terrible time. He gets them very often, but I must add he is still running Windows 7
On a computer that sat for a few years so updates were missed

Just got it this sunday afternoon and wanted to see who won the last at LRC - it had run already so there should not have been a tote influence (hopefully). Opened the last race and it started spinning right away. Acdtually I started to log on to get the prices and THEN it started spinning, so I was trying to activate the twinspires browser

freezing while online again

so we have had this problem before and I knew what to do this time (turn of wifi and work them offline). I came in to see if we were working on an update, but sounds like were still troubleshooting. twinspires link doesn't work or something?
