Rosters
Is there any difference between Majors and 2016 MLB roster-wise when beginning a Quickstart game?

replace that drive immediately.... transfer anythign off that is important ASAP.
if it's the OS drive, install anew on your new drive, then select the os from that drive to boot... it should be able to easily move stuff from that point without system hangs... but it will be very slow X-fer rates. your os probably looks ok, but it hanges occasionally on a HDD in pio mode. boot time probably 2X as long too. best to use OS from another drive to do the transfers. who knows what it could screw up if you have a uncorrectable sector in the wrong system file.

get spybot search and destroy - i prefer the older 1.6.5.2 version, but it's more difficult to use... way less bloat i bet, same libraries. ontop of looking for spyware, check out "Start up" in advnaced mode and i thin Tools? somewhere in the menu system on left, lol. look for useless crap loading up with windows. uncheck boxes and/or remove them completely. this will show more info than typing "msconfig" into Run. review processes... type "services.msc" read through them.. leave windows stuff alone... look for any 3rd part software entries... disable them. google some sites that suggest what to turn off... always use the safest option... in other words more left on. don't do a bare bones selection. some guy has 3-5 categories to choose from and explains stuff one by one. it should be near the top of a search with the right keywords. |

Maybe Broadcast View isn't as pretty as 3D View, but the play by play and crowd reactions have anyway always been more in sync/real time and I like seeing all the player info/positions on screen, etc. The view is more informative. |

Run spybot as admin and in "Advanced Mode"... the default settings will be some "easy mode" and won't give access to the system tool i mentioned. on the left side of the spybot window is a menu of various things... think startup stuff is under "system tools" you only see this in advanced mode (should be a "advanced mode" icon in start menu folder, and if already loaded you can click the option in the file menus at the top of the screen... close/re-load spybot after setting it to advanced mode. if you ran malwarebytes.. don't worry too much about the spybot scan. maybe just run it when you walk away fro the PC. DO use spybot's advanced tools to look at startup applications (loads on boot up). i'd lock the "host" file too while in there. OH, i do know some WIN 7 have a major problem with "Sleep" mode... when it wakes up one of your cpu cores will be running at 100% load... lol good job microsoft... years later still a problem. not on all systems, though. so, make sure that's not what is happending. i believe hibernate works better? i just turn that crap off, lol. (CoreTemp is a program that can give you feedback, or use resource monitor if it separates load% per core in feedback. click Run in the startmenu (same since win98 i think). then type "msconfig" and "services.msc" the msconfig will not show as much info as spybot about programs that boot with windows. spybot's changes are more permanent sometimes too... if you delete an entry in spybot and it comes back... next time just uncheck the box. services.msc will give some good descriptions of background services you don't see.... look for something not made by microsoft that is enabled... read up on it, google it, turn it off if not needed. heck, even create an inbound/outbound firewall rule for ootp17.exe... block it. companies don't deserve unfettered access just because you buy there stuf -- NOT that ootp is devious in anyway, but some of them are... if you can tell who they are, let us all know how :P Last edited by NoOne; 04-06-2016 at 07:58 PM. |

Found it. I looked things over and unchecked a few items that I thought I'd deleted already. Nothing too weird, though -- mostly programs I'd uninstalled but weren't totally gone.

Anyway, I've now made a number of tweaks, and we'll see how things go when the next update rolls around! Thanks again! |

I am attempting to update. I am in somewhat of an odd situation. I have the standalone version that I got for preordering, as well as the Steam version. My girlfriend spilled coffee on my laptop which had the standalone version on it, frying the laptop.
I have connection issues with Steam that started on March 24th, but I still have the original OOTP 17 from launch day. I realize the connection issues are not OOTP's fault in any way, but is there a way to install these updates manually to my steam copy since I cannot get to the standalone version on my fried laptop? I'm seeing a very annoying bug that causes my game to freeze when I auto-play and I'd love to update. |

this is all about the spybot question, not much about your prob... hope things are working now.
go to "Tools" in the left pane and a list should appear in the main window pane. check "ie tweaks" - that new option now available in Tools will allow you to lock your host file. basically it's a large list of known attack urls that are up to no good and also makes it more difficult for another attack site to edit this list (see example in next paragraph). minor help, but passive so it isn't slowing your pc at all. e.g. you, or some malicious softwawre, can create a line in host file that causes Google to actually point somewhere else, like 127.0.0.1 (local file that it injected or some alternate place on internet etc etc. never anything good, obviously.) I'd check "activex" "BHO's", browser pages, ie tweaks, and system startup... delete ALL bho's no matter what... unless for work or very unlikely a financial institution. (turn off bho in win internet options too, aka "third-party software (BHOs)". same idea with active x controls... generally never needed and just a major security risk. i'd change all "browser" pages to "about:blank", unless it is pointing ot the home page you actually use. system internals will have a registry cleaner - very basic.. worst it will do is delete some icons on desktop if not careful. not like most reg cleaners that make you paranoid about breaking it. reg cleaners are overrated... not much benefit, typically. |

i'll hypothetically admit that in a similar past experience with a different software that i have paid for, i was willing to persue 'alternative' means of procurement.... run with that as you will, i say no more. personal note, based in nonfact and emotion - steam is the devil. i found religion because of steam... no not really. |
