Hmm... Why?

Postby JelloMan » Tue Aug 26, 2003 4:05 pm

Just out of curiousity why would you want to "cheat" your uptime?
I am assuming you want a higher number so you can brag about how you got your machine up for so long.... If that is the case why not just leave it running for awhile?

If you want a lower number you could always format and install windows again... :)

If I'm right with you wanting a higher uptime consider this.... Windows is known to be unstable... Even when its up for awhile it still sucks because of all the memory issues and such. If you want to brag about uptime just setup a OpenBSD machine, throw it in your closet, and let it run for a couple years...

LoL, not really...

The reason why though is...

I don't leave my computer on overnight, but i did once, and then, i had to reinstall invision, and i lost the uptime.., and i want to put it back.

TIA,

I've got nearly the same "problem". My record uptime is 3 weeks, 3 days etc.. Now my Invision is totally messed up (this happens about every 6-12 months :( Even if it didn't crash before), now I have to reinstall it and want to put that uptime in again....and I don't think Windows will make it again so far :D

Uptime

Postby Riamus » Wed Apr 27, 2005 11:25 am

Use

/w.glob Invision UTRecord time

Replace "time" with the number of seconds your record is.

To find out how many seconds, use:

//echo -a $calc((604800*WKS)+(86400*DAYS)+(3600*HOURS)+(60*MINS)+SECS)

Replace the red with the correct numbers for each item.

Btw, my record is 7 wks, 4 days... and I rebooted so I could install some hardware. XP is very stable even on a gaming system where I install and uninstall stuff constantly. :D
You can find me at #Invision on irc.irchighway.net or #OldGames on irc.undernet.org if you need me for anything.

Yeah, thx :) I'll try.

Btw.: WinXP is really stable compared to its previous versions. I rebooted after that 24 days manually, but I didn't had to. Just Firefox was kind of messed up, because I started a new installation and closed it immediately, but since then it didn't run anymore before a reboot.
