The hotspot ring problem is probably easily fixed by Steve or Tim or
Phil. Before that happens though, check to see your screen resolution
is set to at least 1280 by 768 and you're using the Windows 7 Classic
screen theme.
When you find stuff in the Recycle Bin, use the File menu restore
option to put it back. It knows from whence it came. That may help in
the above problem.
If you really want to roll back to the state where your computer was
when you first unpacked it, you'll definitely need sighted assistance
due to the particular software Jim uses to make these backups. One
thing I do wish he'd do is to at least provide that software on the
machine which can be written to some bootable medium, then run to do
the restore.

Guys,--
I was having a problem with Samplitude Pro X3 Suite. Some things seemed to be
responding correctly while some were not. My version of Pro X2 seemed to be
responding correctly. But Pro X3 Suite kept telling me that I was not in the
VIP window at various times. Both programs yielded the correct response when
JAWS Q was pressed. So, I figured the scripts were present in both cases. I
figured that, somehow, the .INZ file had disappeared. So, I thoughtId
reinstall it.
Heres where the heartbreak occurred. Steve Matzura, please restrain yourself
as you read. I went to grab the .INZ from a subfolder within a main folder
called something like _drivers and Updates. This directory came with my new
computer and contained all the subfolders filled with the stuff that Jim
installed on the computer on my behalf. This would include Samplitude Access.
But it would also include the installers for Samplitude 2 and 3, JAWS, SONAR,
Sibelius and God knows what else. I was trying to navigate to the .INZ file
so I could reimport it when I apparently deleted the entire fucking directory
from within Samplitude.
Now, I was about to talk about the inaccessible backup Jim Rosebarry delivered
with the computer and ask you guys how I might go about recovering this
directory. That is, until I discovered that this directory, all 32GB of it,
actually was in my Recycle Bin. Imagine my relief. I have now copied it to a
second drive and restored it to its place on the C drive. But that doesnt
explain how the F I deleted the whole thing in the first place. And it
doesnt explain why I wasgetting error messages like such and such position on
the hotspot ring has encountered a problem. Color not found. WTF, Gents.
For those of you who celebrate such things, happy thanks giving. And for
those of you who dont, youre better off.
Kevin
