there are two ways windows standby the computer by itself, close the lid and if the computer is not being used for XX minutes. however, there is a difference, when i open the lid the computer goes out of standby automatically but only if it was caused by closing the lid, but the other does not. so how do i use the lid-standby in VB? [code] and the device in manager "ACPI Lid" has no wake up options, like i have with some keyboards and mice.. so what is the difference, and how do i cause the computer to wake when i open the lid after the standby is initiated?
View 2 RepliesI'm wondering if there is any code that I could use in VB.net so it can determine the computer's startup mode (such as safe mode or safe mode with networking).
View 1 RepliesWhat is the real mode , protected mode , supervisor mode and the hypervisor mode ?
View 1 RepliesThe problem is as follows: If Windows starts up in Safe Mode, no applications I make with VS 2010 will run. Even if I try to launch them, doubleclicking, running, almost everything I tried, the problem is that the application just doesn't show up. There is no window there, and I don't know (haven't checked) if a process related to the application is running.

This is the reason that the user gave: I have Windows 7, and if I don't keep continuously using my computer, it goes to sleep. Now I have to restart my computer, put in the password and start again.

I need to produce an error display message when the Windows Mobile PDA is in flight mode. The user will need to pull and push data from a SQL Server server; however when in flight mode this is not doable and a message needs to be displayed. Currently the message that is displayed is:
A request to send information the the computer using IIS has failed. For more results please see HRESULT.
I am programming using VB.Net and I am fairly new to it. I have searched for the past week on the Internet and come across information suggesting that I use TAPI, however I do not know what to import, or where the "flight mode detection" code would go in my application.

View 11 RepliesI have a windows service that I've written in vb.net using vs 2008 targeting ASP.NET 3.5. It appears that it's installing in a running state, but with the start mode set to manual. Is there a way I can have the service be initially stopped? I assume that it would be something in my service installer, but haven't been able to find it.
View 4 RepliesIntroduction: Probably a year or more ago I asked if was possible to use the Mathematical functions in Windows Calculator or use any DLL file it may use without a satisfactory answer. As I require the greater accuracy of Windows Calculator in String format. Would it be easy to keep switching between a Vb.Net Form windows based application and Windows Calculator and, using SendKeys, get results back to a Vb.Net application using Copy & Paste via the clipboard but to do this in an automatic fashion at all please?
What I am particularly interested in is getting Log10 or LogN results and also doing ARC or INVerse LOG10 or INVerse LogN calculations. But I require the greater accuracy of windows Calculator. Additionally, would it be possible to assign a keyboard keymap to each key in Windows Calculator so that, for example, the L key would be assigned to clicking the LOG10 button, ALT for the Hyp checkbox, SHIFT for the INV checkbox and so on?So imagine sending key sequences to Windows Calculator to completely automate it. And Windows Calculator has been updated too in WINDOWS 7, would that make it any easier to work with?
I have a windows form with nothing more than 4 picture boxes on there and a button. How (if even possible) can I show this page in full screen mode but at the same time allow each control on the form to format and resize in proportion.The best analogy I can give to describe what I want is when thinking about PowerPoint. When you create a slide and then press the F5 button to go into slideshow mode, no matter what size monitor or resolution you use, it always fills up the screen appropriately.

I have written a simple VB.NET program that connects to a MS Access Database. This program runs in Windows 7 XP Mode, but does not run properly in straight Windows 7. Somehow, the Windows 7 does not connect properly or read the MS Access database data properly with the DataAdapter.Fill method. I have dual monitors, so I can run the identical program side by side (one in Windows 7 and the other in XP Mode) - one works and the other doesn't (it doesn't crash, it just get "nothing" from the database when accessing - acts like it's not connected). Has anyone else run into this, or similar, problem with VB.NET and MS Access connectivity?
View 14 RepliesIs there a way to do it in c# or vb.net? I have to bring a system out of standby and play a notification sound if it is in standby mode, at specific time intervals.
View 3 RepliesI need something that will log the time the computer came out of standby, or the user logs in the first time from a reboot.
Basically, I want to time computer usage but in simple terms where computer is being used after waking or after rebooting.
So, All I need is a detection scheme. Does windows provide that? I am probably targeting .NET but can do Win32 API. Or do I have to do anything like that all?
I am thinking if I make a service, windows will handle the launching of the service and that way I can detect usage. But is that the most efficient way?

I've been whining for several months about the way Windows 7 prevents application exceptions from actually occurring, and arbitrarily assigns "compatibility settings" without actually detailing what those settings are, even during Visual Studio Debugging operations. Am I just completely ignorant to some setting I can toggle to turn all that garbage off and make Win7 act like an operating system that wasn't designed for a 2 year old? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario,

I was making a little timer. When the phone is not in standby, my app is working fine. But when i put the phone in standby it stops. When phone is coming out of standby, the timer is going again on the time i put the phone in standby.
I know that other tools keep working, so i there a simple way to do that?
I work for a shop that maintains a fairly new app. The app still has its fair share of bugs, with numerous tickets coming in daily. The error information we're given with those tickets is not as useful as it might be because the application was compiled in Release mode, which I read is smaller and faster (makes sense).
Are there any ramifications to deploying a .NET application to production that was compiled in Debug mode? I would expect it would be a bit slower, but I've read the difference is nominal. This would assure us that when we get errors on tickets we have line number associated with those errors and this, of course, makes debugging much easier. major red flags that would prevent you from doing this? I'm tasked with researching the possibility.
Title pretty much says it all. Does anyone know a way to to prevent a computer from entering a low/non-processing mode while the program is running? I don't care about monitor modes, screen-savers, hard-drive spindown, etc (in fact, I'd prefer to leave those alone; I like it that it shuts the monitor off after a time period).Basically, I have an industrial program that needs to continually monitor a PCI card it uses for IO; and this activity alone isn't enough to convince Windows not to go into Sleep mode. We normally just shut the power-save features off, but we had an incident where a technician forgot, a customer's machine went to Sleep after the end of the shift, the pumps stopped recirculating, yadda-yadda big mess.
