James and all:

I've set up sidekick98 on a new computer but the time synchronization won't connect and work properly. I think its a problem with how I transferred the sk install and the registry entries. Could someone who has a working timesync sk98 set up pull up a registry editor and do a search for sidekick, and then post or email me the contents of their registry entries for sidekick98 (In regedit4 text format). Especially: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Starfish\TimeSync and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Starfish and all sub-folders thereunder.

Thanks very much

Gary Britt

Hi James,

Not new really. I've got the same problem on two computers one runs Win2K and one runs Win98.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the help. What about the reg entries for the timesync branch at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Starfish\TimeSync

Could you post/email those as well.

Also, can you confirm that the internet time synchronization feature works on the machine you took these reg entries from?

Thanks again for all your help.

Gary

Copy the text and then open Notepad and paste it in and then save it as a .txt file then rename it to a .reg file:
