Win7 HP shutdown 2 fast for iMon... (2 Viewers)

[polarie]

did some tests yesterday ....
but no solution ....

will try again today ... maybe new and clean install again.
AND ... i will read the thread which robo linked here complete ...
maybe i find another hint couse i think it can't be that only i have such problems with the normal iMon job...

EDIT:

after several test - nothing ...
i tried the minidsplay driver like robo100 told me in the link.
but in the end i wasn't able to choose the right display type -
it allways went back to the soundgraph displaytype (always when i try "test display")

so i de-install all ... iMON ... MePo ... all ... clean up the system
(all folders which where in use by those Progs ...)
and now i try again ...with a clean install of MePo .. and iMon driver fpr 1.1.3

fingers crossed...

With all of that said, I personally don't have any problems with iMon, and it may be your setup method that is causing the problem. What version of IMon are you using, and ...

do you have win7 with SP1 or without?

 

[robbo100]

With SP1

after several test - nothing ...
i tried the minidsplay driver like robo100 told me in the link.
but in the end i wasn't able to choose the right display type -
it allways went back to the soundgraph displaytype (always when i try "test display")

Did you use the advice about running iMon and MP Config as administrator? Depending upon your VFD type, you may need to do this.

 

[polarie]

i had both restart as Administrator ...
no changes...
and with the TUT u linked ... i was not able to change the device in the minidisplay plugin.
doesn't matter if i choose LCD or VFD ... (and i am sure i have a VFD ...)
after pushing the "test-button" the device flip back to the last working.
also a complete new install with no configuration of the minidisplayplugin -
(after cleaning up the system - removed all kind of soundgraph and iMon stuff)..


next attemp - i also tried to fix the problem by using SP1 for win7 ... no changes.

so at the moment i try to use the "quick&dirty" version of an extra gpedit.msc install (it is a HP of Win7)
but the GP does not start my delay script at all while shutdown is done :-(
the time while shutdown is running does not increase ...


hmm makes me crazy ... couse the system runs fine - remote is working ...
MePo does all the things it does (WAF = 100%) ... till the shutdown ...
after that ... system is still to fast - so the frontfiew reload is not complete
- and so the power-on function via remote is not given ... (WAF=70%)

But there was something about running iMon in admin mode if I remember correctly.

 

[polarie]

korrekt ... correct
right mouse click - open in Admin-mode (i don't know the right order-translation)
i started both with this command... iMon config & MePo config

Configure an OS policy to specify a loggoff/shutdown script: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/3358-execute-a-script-a-startup-and-shutdown

soooo .... i am stuck with this ...
had all done like it is in the thread @ en.kioskea.net ...
but it does not start the script
i just made batch file which should ping the local host twice ...
so that should bring enought time to restart front-fiew ..but nothing ...*argh*

Hi there,

I assume you have the batch file writing out to a log file...so you do know its not executing at all?

If on W7, try using the TIMEOUT command instead of ping.

Also, instead of doing a reg hack, try using the local policy editor: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770300.aspx

hi Jay ---- well one problem was the Win7 Home-Premium thing ...
gpedit.msc is not installed ...
althought i installed gpedit - it didn't worked very well.

now i took another way for target - did a Win7 ultimate install ...
there i can use group policys and i hope that will work.

at themoment i install MePo again ...
VFD is runnning ... an i hope i can do some more tests tomorrow ..

 

[Jay_UK]

We'll get there
