HDD Activity skin.

Post by phenoxan »

Hi all. I am having an issue that is doing my nut in and hope you can help.

I am using HUD.Vision and it comes with HDD monitors for C: D: E: and 2 additional ones for Y and Z. I have 4 HDD's and I wanted to change the "Y" skin to show the stats for my "F" drive. So I edited the .ini and changed all the references to the "Y" drive to "F".

That worked fine except for one thing. All the other monitors are showing the read/write access but my "F" drive skin will only show the write access and i cannot for the life of me figure out why.

i have checked the code and its identical to the other skins (except the drive letter) so it should be working... Any ideas?
