Hi Homer aand Gang,

I have been waa waaing about Penguin Bobber not working, I was nice about it tho .....

Anyways, I went and got my computer specs from your lil program you have, started an email to you, so that I could capture a pic of poor lil Bob standing in the cold watching the penguins eat his groceries,

I started my auto with evil in my eye, and lol lol lol - the darn thing starting working right !!!!

Ok, tonight it is working, maybe tomorrow it will too.

I have also have a prob with the Stacks Auto,  HAWG PILE  Version 1.0   it will not click play again ...... any ideas?

Oh yeah you need specs

Glad to hear it is running for you. Any idea how you got it running?

In regards to HogPile try turning on the JIT Compiler. Mine works with that checked.

If that doesn't work you can always use the Report Problem feature on the auto. This will send a report to the automaker who can try to diagnose your problem. ;)

Homer,

I am not sure what I did, I did not change any settings on my computer, but I did clean it thouroughly:

I used:

CCleaner (also called crap cleaner)
Reg Scrub XP
Error Doctor
Fix It
Ran Norton Disk/Repair Doctor


I had errors in my registry and a whole bunch of useless files that piling up on my computer

Would any of that cause problems with the autos?

Thank you very much I will go play Stacks now and make sure my JIT is checked.

Sometimes when an auto does not work well, I go and check or uncheck it to see if that helps, and I know it was unchecked with Penguin Bobber.

Maybe that should be mentioned somewhere when a person downloads a program???

This is a great site with a lot of friendly helpful people, people who care, a close knit pogo family.....

Thanks Alot,
Sandyhook

It could affect the auto.

The problem with trying to post spec tips is that depending on the pc different combinations work for different people.
