Remote Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Dear (IT) Technical Support: I am desperate for some help. I recently upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and found that the new program began unexpected child processing and also took up a lot of space and valuable resources. This wasn't mentioned in the product brochure. In addition Wife 1.0 installs itself into all other programs and launches during system initialization where it monitors all other system activity. Applications such as Boys Night Out 2.5, and Golf 5.3 no longer run and crash the system whenever selected. Attempting to operate Saturday Rugby 6.3 always fails but Saturday Shopping 7.1 runs instead. I cannot seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background whilst attempting to run any of my favorite applications. I am thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0 but uninstall doesn't work on this program. Can you please help. Joe =================== Dear Joe, This is a very common problem resulting from a basic misunderstanding. Many men upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 thinking that Wife 1.0 is merely a UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT program. Whereas Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM designed by its creator to run everything. You are unlikely to be able to purge Wife 1.0 and still convert back to Girlfriend 7.0 as Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this and it is impossible to uninstall, delete or purge the program files from the system once installed. Some people have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but have ended up with even more problems. (See in manual under alimony/Child Support and Solicitors Fees). Having Wife 1.0 installed myself I recommend you keep it installed and deal with the difficulties as best you can. When any faults or problems > occur, whatever you think has caused them, you must run the C: \I APOLOGISE program and avoid attempting to use the *Esc-key. It may be necessary to run C:\ I APOLOGISE a number of times but hopefully eventually the operating system will return to normal. Wife 1.0 although a very high maintenance program can be very rewarding. To get the most out of it consider buying additional software such as Flowers 2.0 and Chocolates 5.0. Do not under any circumstances install Secretary (Short Skirt version)> as this is not a supported application for Wife 1.0 and the system will almost certainly crash. Best of luck Tech Support _________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Veteran Posted June 26, 2003 Veteran Share Posted June 26, 2003 i too would like to know where i can get that? is there a fee of some sorts involved? i've tested beta versions of girlfriend, and all i remember is that i somehow lost a lot of money and i didn't talk to my friends as much. :blink: after a while i realized it was the girlfriend betas, and i decided to uninstall them. the uninstallations were truly a bitch, but the money i saved by the speed increase in my system far outweighed the loss of money IMO. since then i've become somewhat less interested in the girlfriend program, and have been waiting for the program to mature somewhat before i try it again. hopefully the new girlfriend 7.0 will be much better :woot: now i just have to find an unopened version that is easier to use and won't cost much over a long period of time. from what i've heard, girlfriend 7.0 now tries to emulate a real "person" and is supposed to be able to handle a job of it's own and manage it's own economical problems :cool: :ninja: :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themajor Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 i once knew someone who was running both Wife version 1.0 and Girlfriend version 0.7. All went well until he caught a virus off Girlfriend 0.7. He then downloaded it into Wife 1.0. There was hell to play !!!!!
