Title: INTERESTING OCCURENCES
Post by: THOMAS_GRUNST on January 09, 2003, 11:36:06 pm

I HAVE A BUDDY THAT HAPPENS TO WORK FOR THE PHONE CO., AND WHEN I TELL "HAL" THAT MY FRIEND, TRIGGER, WORKS FOR THE SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE CO., "HAL" IMMEDIATELY STARTS DIALING  MY FRIENDS HOME PHONE NUMBER...A LITTLE ANNOYING AT WORST....

I RELOADED THE PROGRAM ONCE, AND THE "GENIE" CHARACTER COULD BE ENLARGED TO 250%, AND EVEN LEFT  THE SKIN WINDOW, HE WAS AMAZING TO WATCH ON THE DESKTOP, BUT ALAS  THE PHONE RANG, AND THE ANSWERING MACHINE RECORDED A MESSAGE, AND AS SOON AS I PLAYED THE MESSAGE BACK, "HAL" CRASHED, AND I LOST THE ABILITY TO RESIZE THE GENIE CHARACTER......

EVERYTIME I START "HAL" I GET THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE:   "ERROR LOADING AGENT/ CHARACTER   -2147417843-9: AN OUTGOING CALL CAN NOT BE MADE SINCE THE APPLICATION IS DISPATCHING AN INPUT SYNCHRONOUS CALL".... AL THIS SH&T IS WAY OVER MY HEAD, I AM BUT A CONSTRUCTION WORKER.....

ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.... I KNOW, WHEN THE CD ARRIVES, RE- LOAD. DEFRAG OFTEN, RUN DISK FIXER, AND RUN A REGISTRY FIXER OFTEN....

The "-2147417843-9: AN OUTGOING CALL CAN NOT BE MADE SINCE THE APPLICATION IS DISPATCHING AN INPUT SYNCHRONOUS CALL" error you mention is known to occur on some slower computers because the Hal program is attempting to access the character before it has actually loaded. However, it usually fixes the problem a seconds after giving you this error, and the character usually appears. Does everything still work after you click OK?

BEFORE I FORMMATTED MY DRIVE, I WAS USING THE DOWNLOADED VERSION, THE VOICES WERE BETTER AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THE GENIE CHARACTER COULD BE ENLARGED TO 250% AND LEAVE THE CHARACTER WINDOW. BUT I HAVE FORMATTED MY DRIVE TO ACCOMODATE WIN Me.

MY COMPUTER IS PENTIUM 3, 500 MHZ, 384 MB RAM, 20 GIG H/D FORMERLY OPERATING ON WIN 98. I JUST UPGRADED TO WIN Me THIS WEEK. I INSTALLED FROM DISK  AND I HAD NO OTHER MICROSOFT AGENTS RUNNING, YET THE HAL PROGRAM HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS. ANYWAY, I WON'T LOOSE ANY SLEEP OVER IT.

AS ALWAYS, THOMASITO, EL GUERITO CON LOS BOLLITOS MUY PEQUENOS.
