When you click on the link on your site, there's several fake "pop up" windows all over the screen warning about virus.. When you try to close them the normal way, both my virus programs goes nuts.. That's why I post this warning.. And NOT to descredit your work..

Thanks for telling me anyway ;) Non taken.. As you can see in the first "warning" from me, I made a visit on your site 08:10 this morning.. When I entered the site (sendspace.com) I was attacked by several fake popup warning windows, and on close I had virus-alert on my computer.. (Pity I didn't had the time to "printscreen".) I just did another visit and this time it went smooth.. :) Only commercials.. I have downloaded your file and it looks very nice.. Thanks for sharing.. :) Nice work..

Septimus Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 No pop-ups, warnings or viruses here. I think someone has spyware on their machine.

ScottKin Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 (edited) Hmm...no pop-ups or virus warnings for my download...however, when trying to use the Single MultiMeter, I get the following message: A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug? Line:88 Error: 'twoCpu.usagePercentage' is null or not an object So, in thinking that you might have confused the files, I downloaded the MultiMeter D gadget, and I get a similar error: A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug? Line:97 Error: 'twoCpu.usagePercentage' is null or not an object Both Gadgets sit in the Sidebar and do nothing. The CPU Meter Single also throws a Runtime Error in Line 77, but will run after closing the message box. The HDD Meter and the stand-alone CPU Meter (after clearing the runtime error mentioned), however, work just fine Please note that the system is running RC2. --ScottKin Edited October 21, 2006 by ScottKin Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/505287-vista-sidebar-cpu-meter-single-dual/#findComment-587974377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFkilla Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 (edited) Thanks for telling this.... i will check it out... i'm making those gadgets in Vista RC2 by the way... i didn't have any run time error untill now, even that i mixed up the original cpu meter from the sidebar + all the meters i made at the same time and all went fine ( tested around 3h with all on and me changing things with photoshop cs2, visual web developper and wmp11 ) It seemed all very stable to me. I also tested on my girls machine and same story there. Its also true that from one RC2 installation to the other, i had different situations ;) It very nice of you to putt the information about your errors, it will be easier for me to check things out... I let you know if i find something ( i regularly update so it won't take long ) Can you tell me if you have a single or dual core cpu? ( i have a single core but dual thread (HT)) Thanks to all for trying out all this ;) Stay tuned :) Edited October 21, 2006 by SFkilla Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/505287-vista-sidebar-cpu-meter-single-dual/#findComment-587974494 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking your Multimeter D as an example: en-us [Dir] images [Dir] Champibleu.png gadget.xml icon.png mark those and create a zip, then just rename the zip extension to gadget instead. Sorry for the big images, just made this in a hurry.

bornslippy Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 (edited) Thank you slippy i'll try it out... I fixed the multi meter (S) Single core.... Download Here UT2007... can you try it out... Still has a bug... You probably using Rar instead of zip... Just mark the files and rightclick "Add to archive" then choose archive format ZIP... And after rename extention from zip to gadget Edit: I can see you need to fo to folder options and make extensions visiable.... Go to any open window, pres your alt key go to tools and select folder options. Go to the View Pane and and scrol down to "Hide extensions for known file types" and uncheck the box Edited October 21, 2006 by bornslippy Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/505287-vista-sidebar-cpu-meter-single-dual/#findComment-587974851 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should figure out a way to make all of your gadgets use the same backgrounds, so that people who use all three don't have to have the same backgrounds 3 times over ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/505287-vista-sidebar-cpu-meter-single-dual/#findComment-587974861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
