The RefreshClockTest needs to be run with the anti-virus, screensaver, standby, and hibernated functions off. Otherwise, a message prompts you to turn them off before continuing. If I turn off these on XP, RefreshClockTest works. If I turn these on Vista, RefreshClockTest ask me again to turn them off (when they are already turned off) and it cannot proceed with the test (this is different to David's case, who can proceed with the test). The same happened when I tried Windows 7. Eprime2 comes with the same manual than Eprime1.2...(no more information about new OS such as Vista).<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks.
