Quick Questions & Answers Thread - Page 66 - Gambling and Poker Software Forum

If you are positive you have all the hands exported, and will never need the DB's again:

I am pretty sure all you need to do is go to Start > Programs > PGAdmin > Connect to Server > Connect To DB > Right Click DB > Drop/Delete.

I tried doing that and it said something about other users being connected to it or something. That was weird since I'm using XP, and there's only 1 user on the computer and all tracking programs were closed...

Also, I can't get the main/default popup to work in HEM. Only individual stat popups appear. Does such a thing exist? If so, what do I have to change in my setup to get it to work?

Wait for _dave_ to reply, as he is much more knowledgeable about SQL than I am.

The main popup works fine for me by single, left-clicking on any stat. It sounds like it may be a bug. Do you have the latest beta version of HM? 1.06.01p??

I'd expect one of the trackers hadn't closed properly. try it straight after a reboot.

Hi,

Can someone please post a link to software that will allow me to cascade FTP tables like Stars does automatically.

Thanks.

fulltiltpoker.com?

Isn't there a cascade function built in?

You might also be interested in StarsPlanner. The thread is usually near the front page of this forum or you can check the overcards.com wiki or you can do a search.

Hi, I guess this question would be for Dave. I just downloaded your keyboard redirect ahk script and it works great. Is there any way way that I could edit the code to either exclude it from working with full tilt poker or to make it only work with pokerstars? When ever I play on both sites with the original script it messes with FTS. Thanks

It seems to be working but is taking forever, like 1 song every 30-60 seconds, maybe just because it is USB 1.0?

In case this doesn't work, has anyone ever retreived music from their ipod and put it back on their computer? I think I read some where that there is software to do this.

That's almost certainly a dieing hard drive and you should try to back up any important stuff asap and get rid (I've had this happen a couple of times now: big pauses when you try to access files and a loud "clacking" noise... then a couple of weeks later it fails completely).

I usually do my work in Photoshop PSD format, and resize to all different sizes, save as PNG, then use png2bmp converter to create the BMP and .A.BMP files.

You can try using GIMP or GetPaint.net to resize them. But if the Alpha Masks arent right, they might cut off parts of your chips. The alpha masks control the transparency of the edges of your BMP where it changes from chip to black canvas.

Micron is starting production of a new line of solid state drives (SSD) that offer much faster data rates than were previously possible. The new drives are capable of 250MB/s data transfer and come in two lines, an enterprise-class RealSSD P200 and the client-focused RealSSD C200. The company hopes the increased speed and reduced power consumption of the new drives will encourage their adoption by the server market. “We are seeing SSD interest in a variety of applications where historically hard disk drives have reigned,” said Dean Klein, vice president of memory system development at Micron.

“For many, the most logical place is in notebook computers, but there is incredible value for SSDs in enterprise server systems.” The P200 range come in sizes from 16GB to 128GB in 2.5 inch modules, with the C200 ranging from 16GB to 256GB, and comes in 2.5 and 1.5 inch modules for better take-up by notebook manufacturers. The company is claiming that the P200 drives are 10 times faster than traditional platter drives, use a tenth of the power and last about four times as long.

Hi there, Id like to buy a monitor. At present I just have a 20" dell flatscreen. I want to be able to turn it 90 degrees and have it next to the bigger monitor I buy- for this purpose would I want a 30"? If so does anyone recommend any 30" monitors? I live in UK, so might not be able to get all the cheapest deals.

Cheers

Sure, if you copy/paste the HH from the email to a new TXT file. You can't have the non-HH info in the text file (email names, etc), that you would get if you just save as text to the email.

Google for 'Remove avira nag screen'. I looked it up before, but decided I could click 'OK' once a day, instead. I think it's just a registry edit, IIRC.
