Poker Ace & Windows Vista
Tuesday, January 15th, 2008I recently bought a new laptop and it has Vista installed on it. I play my online poker games mostly on the laptop and Poker Ace has been giving me problems. There are actually two problems that I’ve encountered so far playing on FullTiltPoker:
- Sometimes PokerAce doesn’t put the stats on the table. It shows up as very small numbers somewhere else on my monitor and is not readable at all. I tried closing and re-opening the software but didn’t work.
- Also, when choosing flicker free drawing, you can not click on the stats anymore (on the FullTiltPoker table).
PokerAce has instructions on their website for Vista problems. They say you need to run the software as an administrator (right click, choose properties, and choose “run as administrator”. I did that and it didn’t fix my problem. Actually after I did that, PokerAce didn’t even recognize my FTP tables. Apparently PokerAce has problem working with FTP in windows Vista.
Finally, this is how I fixed my problem: PokerAce - currently - has two versions; a stable version and a beta version. I was running the stable version. But once I upgraded to the beta version, my problems were fixed and I actually didn’t have to run the software as an administrator.
