VISTA AND WINDOWS 7 USERS:

"User Account Controls” sets permissions for files, sometimes interfering with the execution of the SASE.OCX module in CycleTimer.

To resolve this issue and allow CycleTimer to run on your machine, install CycleTimer then right click its desktop icon and choose to “Run as Administrator”.

If this does not resolve the issue, simply uncheck the box named "Use User Account Control (UAC)". This is accessed thru the Control Panel -> User Accounts window. At the bottom of this window you will click on "Turn User Account Control on or off".

You will need to restart after making this change.

Help Files

Download the zipped HTML Help file that can be read in Vista or Windows 7. This file has been updated in 2010. Windows blocks all downloaded HTML Help (*.chm) files. Unblock the file after downloading by right clicking it and choosing "Unblock".

To read the Help files by clicking the buttons inside CycleTimer you need to download a small program, WinHelp.exe, from

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917607#3

It only takes a few minutes and only has to be done once for all your software that uses WinHelp files. You will need to know if your Windows version is 32 or 64 bit because there are separate files to download for each version.

After downloading/installing the WinHelp reader you may receive a message saying “There was a problem running the macro. (1037)”. The same Microsoft download website tells how to fix this also:

1.Log on by using an administrator account.

2.Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit in the Programs list.

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

3.Locate the following registry subkey, and then click it:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WinHelp

If the WinHelp subkey is not already there, add it.

4.On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value.  

5.Type AllowProgrammaticMacros, and then press ENTER.  

6.On the Edit menu, click Modify.  

7.In the Value data box, type 1, click Hexadecimal in the Base area, and then click OK.  

8.Exit Registry Editor.
