FASAUTO start or a other program like it
« on: August 09, 2008, 02:35:11 PM »
I have Vista. I downloaded FSauto and tried it, it would come up with a error when I tried to open up the services part of the program. My question is is their a program that will do the same for vista? MAXMEM will not work ether  Thank you :salute

It doesn't work with Vista. I don't know of any comparable apps for Vista.

You can try AlacrityPC. Its the next version of FSAutoStart, built by the same guy. I think it works in Vista..... well about as good as most thing works with vista  :huh

ENDitall works for vista, but its not that user friendly.

Wait! Make sure you visit the forums there and read up on AlacrityPC. There is a bug with Vista (64 at least) and if you update using the programs auto feature you may have major problems! The bug may extend to other OSs Im not sure so read up on it. There is a file you have to delete if the bug occurs.

I tried using it and had good success until the bug hit. Now I just shutdown the sidebar and start AHII with all the processes running but I do use AlacrityPC for FSX and Crysis. Supposed to be fixed at next release.

AlacrityPC has the advantage at being very easy to use.

 Scot:


 Checkout Blackvipers website,then you can manually shut down some of your needless background programs. BTW read skuzzy's tips for vista,they sure helped me streamline vista.

 I was able to reduce the ram usage from 1.3 gigs{ :huh} down to 490 or so megs,skuzzy was able to get his box down to 300 megs. :aok

If you can't install MSI files, your Windows Installer is broken...which I doubt. Probably just need .NET 2.0.
