Hey there,

Having some problems installing party poker on my new PC

Ive just got a new PC running Windows Vista Home64 and after downloading and running PartyPokerSetup.exe and following the steps, it gets stuck on the "Downloading the PartyPoker application" screen, at 0%. This is not an internet connectivity issue nor a firewall problem as ive been installing many other applications inc. several other poker sites without a problem. (i think???)

Would appreciate some help on the issue,
Thanks, Joe

What are your favorite table-opening tools for mining SNGs? I see a lot that let me open up tables to sit at (like FTS) but don't see how I can use them to just observe. Also, do any allow you to search out specific players to mine?

thanks

I have been out of the loop for awhile and still use PT2. Is hold'em manager considered the best software now?

That's the impression I get, yes. Some prefer PT3. Some like using both. But I think the majority (clearly) prefer HEM.

1. There's some software i saw once that did all that pokerstove did plus a few minor additions: one i remember was slightly less nitty entry of hands. Does anyone know what i'm talking about?

2. I'm looking for someting that does what pokerstove does but has the option to change the hand rankings on the slider. E.g. I can put in 30% and select "sklansky chubukov" and it'll select the correct range for that ranking. I'm hoping the program in Q1 does this, but if not can anyone recommend a program that does it? otherwise i just want the normal stove feature set

Dunno if Holdem Ranger does that, there is a thread here RangeStove that may do this altho I can't remember for sure what it does.

does anyone know of any free software that allows you to make phone calls to land lines and cell phones using your computer? i found one called iCall but it won't dial out for some reason, disappointing as it looked promising.

I would greatly appreciate it. thnks.

i need something i need quick help on. im trying to get an ahk script to work. the script is suppose to move tables to diff quads when u stack for multitabling purposes. i think the script is working because it moves my IE windows and such around but when i use it on my PS windows it does absolutely nothing. i got the script from here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/45...rstars-381062/

can someone tell me if i may be doing something wrong. thanks

So I use PT3 and I'm trying to make a luck graph using PokerEV. I went to "Database Management" in PT3 and typed in the database info they give there (server, port, user, database name) into the "Settings" tab in PokerEV. However, I don't know the password to my database... how can I find it?

First time using PT, here is a silly question:

When I am playing tables, and PT is up, as long as my auto-configure is set up to FT and the HH's folder that FT is saving them too, my HUD should appear right? Do I need to do something special to get the HUD to show up?

Time for my bi-monthly ignorant software post. Is there a Stars program that does what FTS does, as far as highlighting/dragging the mouse to the most urgent table? thanks!

Does anyone use the 64-bit version of allSnap? On the site it says,

Quote:

I've heard it works, but I can't test it myself.
WARNING: there is no reason why this should not crash your computer! (but so far it hasn't)

and I just want to make sure it's stable/solid before I start using it on a poker system.

Ty.

Is there any way to turn on the screensaver in Vista (other than waiting for it to come on automatically)?

Same as in XP, you can click Preview from the Control Panel | Personalisation | Screen Saver form (or rightclick on desktop).

Ty, but I'm trying to figure out how to turn it on not just preview it (I want the logon screen to be displayed on resume).

Windows Key + L (shortcut for Lock PC), is that any use?
