Help With Hyperdesk

Now quit throwing rocks......

December 14, 2010 3:33:45 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Guys, I know what you're saying, "Yuck!!  Why Hyperdesk?"

Well, back when Hyperdesk started, I bought a few. I only have XP Hyperdesk skins, so here is the problem.

I apply a theme and all is well, I reboot to windows classic. I have to reapply the Hyperdesk theme every reboot.

The only response I can get from Jeff is that I have Stardock programs installed and that he can't help it if Stardock software doesn't play well with Hyperdesk. (Direct quote, BTW.)

 

So, if any of you out there have a solution for this, please yak back.

Maybe he's right. Did you try uninstalling all of your Stardock programs then trying Hyperdesk??

Shame on you for even suggesting that to RND. He's got Lizard blood running through his veins.

I use hyperdesk and stardock applications in windows 7 with no problems.......that's weird - It must be exclusive to windows XP.

My guess (based on some experience with similar Hyperdesk issues):

Try disabling WB AND keep it from running on startup. Maybe that'll fix it...

Actually I think maybe the conflict comes from the Hyperdesk patch and where WB works... that .dll maybe. Not sure about this, though. Hyperdesk works through the RAM so maybe it's still in there while WB tries to work and can't?

Have you tried LCARS? I believe there's a WB by that name.

Guys with all due respect to Lcars its not even comparable to the Original star trek series Hyperdesk suite. If you ever used it you would know what I meant. There is nothing comparable to it as far as windowblinds is concerned, period. I love windowblinds but when I want something star trek hyperdesk is where its at.

A good idea would be to port the Hyperdesk theme to Windowblinds guys.  For personal use only of course.

Then you would not need to worry.
