  1. I agree with Perry

    Only way to know if it is the router or modem is to try the modem directly to see if the speed increases

    Tis likely one of the two is the culprit

    If both register roughly the same speeds, then the problem may be in cabling or directly from the provider

    Good luck tracking this down Scott

  2. P,

    Glad to have you back. I consider you to be a positive contributor. You have much more knowledge than I do. I know this forum is run be Chief, but GEE WIZZ. 

    Chief runs the forum but from my limited knowledge, it is not the creator or owner

     

    I refer to a ticket I submitted regarding some issues I was having w/ the forum on my end

     

    The reply was something to the effect that Cheif would have to contact the "owner" (designer?) of the forum and for me to attach capture screens of the issues

     

    The problems were corrected without any intervention by me (or Chief that I am aware of)

  3. Yes, it has

    Certain tasks I make sure I right click and check Run as as Aministrator - even though I am

    Tis a pain, but I always check Run as Administrator when I am using system tools  like regedit or cmd prompt before I open it

    Even with cmd prompt - I have to make sure to get an elevated state to use

     

    Found out somewhere down the line it was simply easier than being denied after I tried to effect a change to the OS

     

    I still don't know if that popup is program specific or some flaw in the OS

    On the other hanbd . it could be folder/file specific

    Right click on the folder/properites/security and see what the permissions are

     

    Anyway - was worth a shot

    Best of luck - no doubt you will get it straighten out

    Let us know when you did and what you did

    You my want to check the permmisions on your  account

    Control Panel/User accounts

    Open your user account to see what rights your account has

     

    If you have Admininstrator rights - you should not be seeing this problem

    If not, then it can be changed easily enough

    Could be permissions were changed for either the Archive folder or the Boyd Station file

     

    Worth looking at anyway, as it apppears the auto save path is correct, but CA is confused because the write could not execute

     

    To check the permissions - open ......X6 Data - then right click on the Archives folder

     

    Properties-Security : All Allow permissions should be checked (with the exception of the last - Special permissions)

    If not - just use the Edit button to correct

     

    Open the Archives folder and do the same routine for the Boyd Station file

     

    Permissions have been known (rarely) to alter so it is long shot

    Good luck

    I also see only the key for X6 in my locker, so for a test I did this

    Deactivated the X6

    Opened X5 - it went through the usual questions about startup options, but fired right up

    Never asked for my product key

    I can only assume (probably not the best word to use) that the key is stored & associated with my version of X5 on the server

    Closed X5 and started X6 - it opened a dbx that listed my product key w/ the activation option -activated it and X6 started - no questions - straight to the software

    Seems product keys associated to different versions should all be listed in the locker, as this is strange behavior IMO
