CargoRunner Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 This sounds like a weird one to me. I have no idea what to try next. I am using a new PC with windows 8.1. Not very much software installed on it. I don't know if hyperspin uses flash player, but flash player is up to date. I have a very old hyperspin set up. I can just double click on hyperspin and the application starts no problem and quickly. I downloaded the latest version of hyperspin and unzipped. If I double click on hyperspin or HyperHQ not a lot seems to happen. After 20 secs maybe an icon may appear in the task bar, but there is no window or application appearing in task manager. Sometimes the mouse cursor is restricted to where the hyperspin window would be if it was running. There is no intro video or sound effects. I have tried to launch Hyperspin and HyperspinHQ at least 20 times. Rebooted the machine lots of times. Copied the install from a NAS drive to a local drive. So far Hyperspin has started only twice in the last 2/3 days. When it does start there is a very long delay between double clicking on the exe and the intro video starting. To the point that is a surprise that the video has suddenly started. Once I have failed to start the new version of hyperspin, I can't get the old version to run anymore. I have to reboot the machine. So I then tried running the new version of hyperspin on an old windows 7 laptop from the NAS. Again it won't start. I have read there might be an issue with the number of screen resolution modes. The new PC has a mid range graphics card. The laptop is just basic graphics.
CargoRunner Posted June 28, 2015 Author Posted June 28, 2015 HyperHQ just started, but it is totally mangled looking. Like all the forms are appearing at once on top of each other. I don't know how to attach a screen shot. I have tried to download again. But doesn't seem to work any better.
