Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by deleoyebamiji: 4:42pm On Feb 23, 2013
Pls I'm running Quickbooks Point Of Sales 2013 Pro on a LAN of like 10 PC users in a Fast Food.
The problem is that touch response time when punching an item button on touch screen is very delayed. That is it's slow in response and thereby slows down our turn-around-time (time spent to attend to customer) at the counter.
Other multiuser software that I have tested on our network runs fast and ok. I have archived (Cleaned up data) the quickbooks POS database on the server.
After all these are done I realised that touch response is still slow.
Pls what can I do to resolve this problem?

Note: I'm not talking about Quickbooks Accounting but Multi-user version of Quickbooks Point of Sales 2013 Pro.

Twice the size of the largest File set to back up + 100MB or twice the size to restore.

Also check you firewall, it might be making it slow by confirming Quickbook actions before allowing a pass through.

Thanks mdsocks. All these requirements are met. infact I run a server OS on a server PC (Intel xeon 2.27Ghz X 8 with 22GB RAM, 140GB Hard drive)

While on Terminals I have Intel 1.8Ghz X 2 as minimum with 3GB RAM, 140 Hard drive)

Firewall configured to suit my quickbooks POS.

But the cause of the slowness is what I dont know.

upengineer: @deji2009,
What happens is that after pressing the power button, the system boots and when it is time for the screen to show, it turns blank and the message that appears before the screen goes blank is; Start Windows with its normal parameters.
what are the window parameters again

What is the make and model of the computer ?
e.g. toshiba p300-20H windows Vista
any blue screen also make sure you provide us with
the full error message that if any
restart and keep pressing f8 go to safe mode for
me, you'd notice the icons will be big and with
lots of writing that's normal. don't panic !
once in safe mode click start, all progr...
access....system tools and system restore select a date
before the problem started
can you hear the hard drive clicking. if it is
hp restart f10 to get to bios and run me a hard rive test please

i hope you've got your video driver properly installed and up to date?
check the readme file on the game's cd to see the minimum requirements if it matches with your system's spec.

Search FOR DELL INSPIRON 17R with Nvidia graphics card. You will love it.. If you want gaming and graphics, Nvidia or AMD chipsets are the best but i guess most ship into Nigeria with Intel chipsets which are powerful also but not as good as Nvidia's or AMD.

ok, try run the game in windows xp compatibility mode, just right click on the game icon and select properties, then click on the compatibility tab. you'll see a "run in" option box, select xp or lower version of windows.
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by DDon11: 5:49pm On Feb 25, 2013
I have tried that f10 nothing worked. But I managed to get some info from d laptop as i was about to switch it off.
It says '' Too many other files are currently in use by 16-bit programs. Exit one or more 16-bit programs, or increase the value of the FILES command in you Config.sys file''. I don't kw why a 16 bit program will be running as soon as i connect to the internet.

I've also ran memory tests, it came out clean.

yeah, i just read about the compatibility issues with windows 7. Well you can try deleting the gta_sa.set from your gta user folder; this is the path- C:\Users\(name of user)\Documents\GTA San
Andreas User Files. i read it helps.
This is actually the first time i am reading about "game" compatibility issues with win7.
If no show, guy! migrate to bera games jor.

skydancer: I've been very busy,
@stan: pls give me more details. What error messages does it give? What does it do when you try to convert? Do other converters work? Your formatting problem is typically that of a virus problem. A virus can hook files in a removable drive and work with it, thus you are unable to eject it or format it. It is no use formatting a drive on a virus infected computer. Because immediately after that, the virus rehooks. Open command prompt and type 'control folders'. A window will popup. Click the view tab. Scroll and check view hidden files and folders. uncheck the hide system files and hide known file extensions. This will enable you to see hidden viruses in your flash. Alternatively, you can write 'attrib -h -s E:\*.*' where E is the label of your removable drive.

@ochuko: I've sent you d settings, r u so ungrateful
pls can i still apply this with C:\ to see the virus running on computer as well?

First and foremost, I would like to know the name of the game(include the version) and your system configuration. What I am looking at from the image you posted seems to be graphic related thing,etc.
