Got tired of using the calculator to figure out multi's/FSB/memory so I wrote programs make it easier to switch between processors when you're trying to decide which processor to buy or how far you have to push the FSB for giving goal

it's located here

I'll have to give it a try. Most of the time I use a spread sheet instead of a calculator.

Thanks

I'm downloading visual studio atm, think that'll fix it? I googled it but it just gave me stuff to download the dll, which I tried putting in system32 and the folder itself.

I don't know, I don't know much about the DLLs, maybe its a problem with the decompression. If you want I'll e-mail you one, drop me a e-mail

also Double click on an open space to change the color, I will work on getting fonts manipulated.

For all you guys that had a problem with the original version, try this new one. SeaDave77 turned me on to some runtime files that seem to eliminate some compatibility issues. Please PM me with any problems and or fixes to any issues, suggestions are welcome as I am new to this programming stuff.

Thanks Tommy

I like it, thanks.

Only suggestion would have been to make the FSB number actually rise as you slide the bar. Might as well type it in otherwise, because when you stop, you have no clue where it's gonna be at. Otherwise very nice work.

Edit: Also having it show up in the taskbar would be cool, or being able to minimize it to the system tray. Of course i couldn't do anything like this, so i don't know if that's a huge task or what, but either way, still a nifty little proggy.

Good suggestion, I believe I would just have to make a toolbar, and set it to show Max, Min, options. I'll see if I can and if I can I'll upload the new one.

The way I use the FSB slide bar is with the arrows on the end, I had the numbers scroll upwards when you use those arrows, check to see if yours does that or did the compression mess with it like it did with the originals arrow boxes on the controls(it made them larger and out of proportion

Now i'm getting an error when opening it.

"Must have MSSTDFMT.DLL installed on your machine"

Just like the others. It worked on my lappy though.

Click on the link below

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...24-4122-44af-8ab4-7c039d9bf629&displaylang=en

and download the run-time files, let me know if those files work

and this is your new program, I updated the color selection if you don't like the red, double-click right above the FSB slider bar and use whatever color you like.

Even after installing the dll into my system32 folder, no dice on this machine. It works on my laptop though (SP1). Maybe that has something to do with it?

I don't know, did you try to download the run-time files? Anybody with VB experience have any ideas?
