Here is a message I just sent to key people at
Thomson and Sencore.
Walter
> All of you are aware of my problems with these
> products.
> Let me add a little more knowledge that may help
> us
> solve the problem.
> I uninstalled Chipper Check version 1.80 from my
> laptop, because anytime I tried to use it my
> 'puter
> would turn itself off in a minute or two.
> I then installed the older version 1.77.
> No more shutdown!!!
> While I'm not the brightest light in the harbor,
> this suggests to me that version 1.80 is buggy,
> or
> at least incompatable with some operating
> systems.
> For which, in my mind , there is NO excuse.
> Windows XP has been out, at least two years, and
> I
> had my first encounter with Version 1.8 and the
> ATC311 a year ago.
> Let me add that the shutting down of the computer
> occured whether the computer was connected to the
> tv or not.
> To recap I tried 3 different computers and 3
> different operating systems.
> I even have a stripped version(just enough
> drivers
> to get it out of bed) of ME in its own partition,
> and that doesn't work either.
> The other two systems were XP-Home and XP- Pro.
> The other two computers failed in a different way
> than my Toshiba notebook.
> The Toshiba would communicate with the set and
> actually start working, but then shut down.
> The other two 'puters would establish
> communication
> but the set would never enter the service mode.
> I want to extend my thanks to everyone that has
> tried to solve this problem, Especially Kevin
> and
> Glen @ Sencore.
> Would someone give this to the approiate
> person(s) at Thomson??
> Maybe there is another answer, but to my feeble
> mind Version 1.80 is just plain defective.
> Thanks
