Re: V6.9.3 UPGRADE RELEASED
V6.9.3 UPGRADE RELEASED
The 6.9.3 upgrade is now available on the Recorder Software website at http://forums.nbn.org.uk/recorderWebsite/upgrades.htm. This includes an upgrade kit for any version of Recorder 6 and an upgrade kit for version 6.7.2 or later.
Please read the release notes and guidance given before running the upgrade and the dictionary update.
As this initial dictionary update is relatively large we strongly advise you to run this update overnight.
This update requires a large amount of processing power to run and therefore you may receive a message in the title bar of the ‘Recorder Dictionary Upgrade’ window that indicates that the application is not responding. PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL THE UPGRADE AT THIS STAGE. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del and open Task Manager. Under the Applications tab the status of the ‘Recorder Dictionary Upgrade’ will also be displayed as not responding, however, if you click on the Performance tab, the CPU Usage will probably be nearing 100% and the CPU Usage history line will be at the top of the grid box. Unless the CPU Usage is low and static, the upgrade is still running. If you have a network version of Recorder 6, then you will need to monitor CPU usage both on the server and local machine to check that the upgrade is still running. The upgrade splits it’s time between the two and therefore the local machine may become inactive whilst the server continues to process the upgrade. A message is displayed when the upgrade is complete.
If any further guidance is required on running the upgrade or if you have any problems please do not hesitate to contact me, either directly or via the Recorder email: Recorder@JNCC.gov.uk. Alternatively post a message on the troubleshooting section of this forum.
Many thanks,
Sarah
