Sleepyhead showing summary only - orava - 09-17-2017

Sleepyhead has stopped showing all data/graphs,etc and instead is showing the "summary only : (".  

I tried a new SD card, and made sure I waited for the proper messages on the Cpap machine, and this didn't help. I checked the files on the old and new SD card, and it does appear to show the same sorts of file per date on the "summary only" days as on the fully functioning days.  I am sure the card was fully engaged in the CPAP (ResMed 10 Airsense for Her). Since my computer shows the files in the E drive, I assume the card reader is ok (?).  I am even assuming the CPAP machine is OK, since it does seem to generate files which by name, at least, look correct.  And SleepyHead is doing something, since it does seem to show a summary which corrresponds to the correct sleep times, although the AHI does seem to be  somewhat sketch.  I also did not pull the SD cards out of the Cpap before it had written the data.  I have plugged and unplugged the Cpap machine from the power source.  I did some 'program compatability check' with Windows 10 and SleepyHead, to no avail, though I may have done it improperly.

I think there may be a connection between a windows 10 update and this fail, but I can't swear to the timing.

So, maybe my assumptions are all wrong, or the Cpap has failed, or computer...I would be extremely grateful for any help you may offer, as I am really relying on SleepyHead just now to troubleshoot some mask issues, etc that I am having.

And 1*10^6 thanks to all of you for sharing your knowledge in general. It has been a huge help.

Check the Sleepyhead menu under Events and Wavform tabs. Be sure all events and waveforms you want to view are checked. If everything looks okay there, go to Data/Rebuild CPAP Data and see if that fixed the problem.

Hi orava,
WELCOME! to the forum.!
Good luck with CPAP therapy.

Thanks much. Events and waveforms seem fine; I had already tried rebuilding the data, but did it again, to no avail.

Well, I found the solution.

Ok, I think I got it figured out. There are two .exe files in the SleepyHead program folder of C:\Program Files (x86). The shortcut installed by the Sleepyhead install, calls C:\Program files(x86)\SleepyHead\SleepyHead.exe and runs. But my version is now failing to display my graphs correctly. As TBMx pointed out, the broken-GL version of SleepyHead.exe will work-a-round this problem. I don't know what the real fix is but my Norton anti-virus protection program won't let me download and install a fresh copy of Open-GL; but running the C:\Program Files (x86)\SleepyHead\SleepyHead-BrokenGL.exe works. If you have this problem, you can right-click on the desktop SleepyHead Icon shortcut, then, choose properties, then add "-BrokenGL" to the link shown in the shortcut (or delete and enter the full path "C:\Program Files (x86)\SleepyHead\SleepyHead-BrokenGL.exe", to load and run SleepyHead.   


This also fixed another problem I was seeing. As I would scroll down the graph page, the displayed graphs would black out, then reappear as the page scrolled. A problem another poster had an issue with too. This may very well fix his problem too. Joe

This worked for me.  I hope it helps someone else. I will say the fidelity of the graphs isn't great, but...
