Ok..I tried WPI for the 1st time...
downlaoded it and installed it.... great
setup everything how i wanted ....great
used nero to burn a test image...great
run my test image in daemon tools.... not great
monitor went black and told me "input not supported"
rebooted... xp starts to load... then back in black
xp did boot up.. my speakers told me it was booting up
my monitor on the other hand insists that "input not supported"
rebooted in safe mode and did a system restore, ok so that did fix me
but i thought hey maybe it was just my pc
so i burned another image, run it and guess what?
yup another system restore
am i alone in having this problem?

WPI.CMD changes the screen res and refresh rate when launched, sound like you monitor cant handle the res or refresh , edit wpi.cmd with notepad and edit the video changer line to somethign more suitabke for your hardware

ok i completely removed

REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface.
start %wpipath%\Tools\VideoChanger.exe 1280x1024x32@85 -q


and.... it worked fine

still would like to know why the need for res change tho, also with flat panels becoming more and more the norm , prehaps a little warning in the user manual? just a thought there.

if you want more fun with WPI
only delete the REM here in wpi.cmd .

Quote

REM del /s/q "%userprofile%\desktop\*.lnk"

(of course is just joke)

It is disabled by default in the next version. Lesson learned.
