I just had the strangest crash...pushing Scope & SX a bit, and I got a deafening high pitched squeal etc.....but this is the strange bit - it deleted a lot of the data in my cset file, so when I rebooted all the menus in Scope were wrong, and everything looked different.
Thankfully I had a back-up of my cset so managed to restore everything quickly, but without it, well who knows what mess I'd be in?
Back up your cset & Scope.rgy NOW !

This happens if you have caching enabled for your hard drives, I think (and your PC freezes suddenly).

Yes, it help having a faster/cleaner shutdown of window.
It prevent buffering too much data, causing a burst write, and incidentaly, a glitch in recording.

you simply locate them (with search file) and copy them to a safe place

If i remember rightly:
ScopeAppBin....then just copy the files to My Documents or anywhere you fancy

Also, there's an item in the Settings menu that will let you save Scope.rgy (and Cset.ini I think) wherever you want.

does disabling help in XP too?
Also does CPU overhead increase if it's switched off?
Thanks
