My cousin has windows xp pro (pirated) and i have xp media center (not pirated). As far as I know there isn't a major difference between the two as far as .net programming goes. But anyways, I wrote a major program that I wish to sale soon and it gives him errors, however; it's been running on my system for about a month now on three users (two non admins) and no errors. I can't explain it. He installs it and all is fine then within an hour an error. This happens when he presses three hot keys to bring up a login screen on the program. Any ideas?
 
Yea here's an idea, tell him not to use pirated software. I cannot even believe that you would post that on this forum. Pirated software hurts Micorsoft, and then it eventually filters down to developers and end users. If a person wants a piece of software then said person should go out and buy it otherwise said person shouldn't be complaining about errors. I'm giving this post 1 day for a reply then i shall delete it, as i consider it a personal insult to those who buy geniune software.
 
I am not not using Pirated software. Mine is legit and genuine. I said my cousin was and he was just helping me test my software. All I meant by the question was, is it b/c he's using pirated windows. Next time I'll leave the part out but either way. I program legit and legal. But don't act like you've never used limewire or some sort of computer piracy before. Nah, this isn't an argumentive forum but I take it as an insult that you react like so for a simple question. Just b/c you know somone that knows somone that uses pirated windows you want to delete the thread? Delete this thread; I found the fix anyways.

I mean I like you vis and we have posts going waying back but dang man.


BUT, here's the fix.

In my code I had the popup login windows running on seperate threads. Not sure if that was the reason or not but sometimes in the paint event of the window (in which I had it painting a faded blue to steel blue) it would try and paint before the window was opened. I noticed in some error results the clientsize width and height was 0. So I just returned from the handle if it was so and it redraws normal afterwards. So, basically it wasn't a diff or OS but a random thing that I found out even happens on my computer if I minimize and maximize the window ect.... Problem solved.
