Instant Sheller
« on: March 08, 2012, 05:53:11 pm »
There is an instant sheller on emumovies.com.  If I use this sheller and exit hyperspin, is there a way to:

1)  Get back to windows to use my Windows Media Player (MP3s)
2)  Force Hyperspin to shut down the pc?

1) The sheller stops explorer etc so you would probably need an AHK script to restart explorer etc.  You could just add media player into hyperspin :)
2) The easiest way to do this is to tell windows to shut down when you press the power button. This option is within control panel, Power Options, Advanced, look for the "When I press the power button on my computer" option. set this to "Shut Down".

Run HyperHQ, go to Main Menu Wizard, New, Call It Media Players or some such. Click Next, choose Is this menu item an executable program, yes, Put the wheel wherever you want it to go. Continue, Locate your Media player software. (C:\program files\windows media player\wmplayer.exe) Continue, continue, use Hyperlaunch=No

That should get media ctr up for you :)

Chances are there are AHK files and wheels for the various media players you could use. The above is just the quickest way I know of doing what you want to do.
