Title: -Playing WHDload games with Netgear Wifi card Plugged
Post by: Drummerboy on May 05, 2013, 06:14:39 AM

Hello,

Somebody happened any time, When try to play WHDload games with the Netgear PCMCIA card plugged, some WHDload games not work properly?. Just work fine with the card unplugged.

Exist any way to fix this with any command or app?.

The cardreset and cardpatch it is installed.

Any comment, suggest, help are welcome.

Known issue if you have the IP stack running.
amitcp or MiamiDX or whatever.
WHDLoad doesn't work well with the interrupts of the IP stack.
Disable your stack when running it.

Just for update.

This problem solve just:  First run status to check the process number. Then run break "processnumber".

Thanks  @fryguy

You need first check the process  number using the shell command "Status", then this will show all the running process in that moment. In the list appears "Process 5. wireless manager".
Now, again in the shell, you need type "break process 5", then you are done!. Wirelessmanager is killed, the Card LED is turned off.
After that you can run all the WHDload games without problems.

Or use the cleanup scripts provided with WHDLoad.

Just enable them in WHDLoad.prefs and then edit the scripts :-)

As per the bugs page on the WHDLoad.de website.
