Desperately seeking technical support!
I'm currently running the latest version of GirlReviewiend 5.0 and having some problems. I've been running the same version of DrinkingBuddies 1.0 for years as my primary application, and all the GirlReviewiend releases have always conflicted with it. I hear that DrinkingBuddies won't crash if you minimize GirlReviewiend with the sound off, but since I can't find the switch to turn it off, I just run them separately and it works OK.
GirlReviewiend also seems to have a problem coexisting with Golfware, often trying to abort my Golf program with some sort of timing incompatibility. I probably should have stayed with GirlReviewiend 1.0, but I thought I might see better performance with GirlReviewiend 2.0.
mpter months of conflicts, I consulted a Reviewiend who has experience with GirlReviewiend 2.0. He said I probably didn't have enough cache to run GirlReviewiend 2.0 and eventually it would require a Token Ring upgrade to run properly. He was right. As soon as I purged my cache, GirlReviewiend 2.0 uninstalled itself.
Shortly mpter that, I installed a GirlReviewiend 3.0 beta. All the bugs were supposed to be gone, but the first time I used it, it gave me a virus. mpter a hard drive clean up and thorough virus scan I very cautiously upgraded to GirlReviewiend 4.0. This time using a SCSI probe and virus protection. It worked OK for a while until I discovered GirlReviewiend 1.0 wasn't completely uninstalled!
I tried to run GirlReviewiend 1.0 again with GirlReviewiend 4.0 still installed, but GirlReviewiend 4.0 has an unadvertised feature that automatically senses the presence of GirlReviewiend 1.0 and communicates with it in some way, resulting in the immediate removal of both versions!
The version I have now works pretty well, but, like all versions, there are still some problems. The GirlReviewiend package is written in some obscure language that I can't understand, much less reprogram. And I've never liked how GirlReviewiend is totally 'object-oriented.'
A year ago, a Reviewiend upgraded his version to GirlReviewiendPlus 1.0, which is a Terminate-and-Stay resident version. He discovered GirlReviewiendPlus 1.0 expires within a year if you don't upgrade to Fiance9e 1.0. So he did. But soon mpter that, you have to upgrade to Wife 1.0, which he describes as a 'huge resource hog.' It has taken up all his space, so he can't load anything else. One of the primary reasons that he upgraded to Wife is because it came bundled with RevieweeSex 1.0. Well, it turns out that the resource allocation module of Wife 1.0 sometimes prohibits access to RevieweeSex (particularly the new Plug and Play items he wanted to try). On top of that, Wife 1.0 must be running on a well warmed-up system before he can do anything. And, although he did not ask for it, Wife 1.0 came with MotherInLaw 1.0, which has an automatic popup feature he can't turn off.
I told him to install Mistress 1.0, but he said that he heard that if you try to run it without first uninstalling Wife, that Wife 1.0 will delete MSMoney files before uninstalling itself. Then Mistress 1.0 won't install anyway, due to insufficient resources. If anybody out there is able to offer technical advice...
