Problem with Mala when loaded at startup

(1/3) > >>

Ninten-doh:
I put a copy of the Mala shortcut into my Windows XP startup folder so that it will launch Mala immediately after Windows loads.  The problem is, when I do this I lose my minipac and keyboard controls.  I have to exit to Windows then go back into Mala in order for the minipac and keyboard to work again.  Anyone have an idea what stupid thing I'm doing wrong?   :dizzy:

I'm using Mala 1.0rc7.  Thanks!

 I really have no idea, but is the run-time directory for the shortcut set to the installed directory for MaLa???

Translation for dummies like me:

Try putting the path to mala in the 'start in' section of your short-cut properties (the same as in target bit) but without '\mala.exe' at the end

Loadman, thanks for the translation.   :cheers:

BTW, I haven't tried clicking the "Start with Windows" option within Mala because I would prefer to do this without messing with the registry.  Do I need to have that clicked as well?
