    He doesn't have to call it iFlashScan or iScan or iFlash...

    I develop linux device driver code and I don't name anything iXXXX or eXXXX...

    I find that WinXP runs better on the VMware Fusion x86 virtual machine than it does on real x86 hardware... go figure...

    I have a question......

    So, when did the V2 start having hidden applications? I wondered what that extra switchable tune setting was for......



    At least it could help pass the time while waiting for the next tuning job....

    2. Then Vista came along with its new "security" model. Vista (by default) prevents applications from modifying files in C:\Program Files for security reasons. The only way to get around that is to give the application higher privileges.

    3. So where should I store data that is to be modified by the software but not directly editable by the user? (i.e. Options.txt and *.ini files since I'm no longer using the registry)

    4. Microsoft's solution (on Vista) was to create a new folder called C:\ProgramData (notice they obviously learned their lesson from the "Program Files" fiasco and did not include a space in the ProgramData folder name).

    5. Problem is there is no C:\ProgramData on earlier versions of Windows by default.

    6. Microsoft's solution is that developers should use \Documents and settings\All users\Application Data on earlier versions of Windows.

    Microsoft -> <- Me

    I seriously considered just installing EFILive into C:\EFILive and just opting out of Microsoft's "best practices" altogether. I may still do that...
    Gotcha . Go figure on M$ making everything difficult for the developers.

    Actually I have been browsing for a Mac so I can port EFILive on to Mac OSX. The majority of my software development life has been writing C on Unix, so doing a Mac port would be like "going home".

    Ah, see in development we get the updated colour version that also runs MAME



    Breaking news: As MAME is an open source not for profit program this device has been scrapped. However, inside word is the real reason was the addition of an 'i' in the product name that caused GMPX to force all marketing personnel to sit on Judas chairs until they all agreed to never name a product beginning with a lower case i again.

    Cheers,
