SleepyHead FRUSTRATION! [graph turns black]
#11
RE: SleepyHead FRUSTRATION!!!!
mcsheltie,
It appears to be a graphics rendering issue. Look in the SleepyHead program directory and try the SleepyHead-BrokenGL.exe version.

Let us know what happens.

No idea what you are talking about. It didn't give me any downlaod options
Okay... so I deleted and reinstalled SleepyHead. I put my SD card in the computer and it says it is empty. It was in my machine all night. I put it back in the machine and left it for an half an hour and it still says it is empty.

And yes, it is unlocked.

WTH now??? I have had about enough of this...

RE: SleepyHead FRUSTRATION!!!!
When you formatted the SD card, you will have lost all data that was previously stored on it. The machine will write the basic data back to the card when you insert it but not the graphing data, since it is never contained in the machine, instead written directly to the card in real time.

Depending on how you uninstalled the previous version, such as deleting the SH folder manually, you will also lose all SH data on your hard drive. If you have any backups, you can pull that data back into the new install. The only thing you need from the backup is the 'Profiles" folder from the SH folder. If it was sent to the Recycle Bin, you can drag it to the desktop and get it back from there.

If the uninstall was done by some other method or if the new install went to a different location than the old, there is a chance that the old profiles folder is still on your drive. A search would be in order with fingers crossed. If you find it, then delete the existing one in the new SH folder and copy the old one back in.

Otherwise, you will be starting anew and new graphing data will appear when you load your next sleep session from the SD card. Not the end of the world but I can understand the disappointment.

I know all the data is wiped when you reformat. I put the card back in the machine reloaded it and downloaded into SleepyHead. And as I said above, half the charts are missing. They were there yesterday.

I uninstalled it AGAIN, took a nap so I had new data to enter and the charts are still missing.

I don't think you understand... I need to fix this so going forward all the charts will be there. The old data is not the issue.

You should try the other version to eliminate that possibility. To be clear, it's not a different download or install, it's a second executable file that comes with the SH software you already have installed. You can run either version, whichever works best.

To easily find it, right click on your SH shortcut and choose "properties". Then click on "Open file location". You will be shown the current executable that you are having issues with. Right next to it (scroll down) you will see the other version that you may try. Worth a shot.

That failing, it sound like a bug with the SH software and you may have to use something else.

When Sleepyhead installs in the Window x86 folder, it installs 2 EXE files. You need to navigate to that folder and locate the Sleepyhead_Broken_GL.EXE file and right click it, send to desktop as a shortcut. This is the file you want to run rather than the Open GL version. If you want to try it out before creating the shortcut, just double click the brokenGL.exe file Bet it works.
