Unwinder thank for the release and if it's possible can you change the uninstaller in future so in next versions soit won't touch kumbuster entries in registry if we uninstall afterburner to install a new version ?
how it act now after each update of afterburner we have to install Kumbuster again so it be able to work with afterburner.

I was under the impression that new versions can simply be installed over the older version without any uninstalling.

It is definitively not supposed to be that way, I'll update the installer to prevent it from cleanin up Kombustor related registry entries.

My first post here, just wanted to say thanks for the update. I was wondering why after I restarted my computer it said outdated file for afterburner. not sure it was suppose to do that but uninstalled it and downloaded and installed this one. works great, except the issue with the Kombustor but thats no biggie thanks again

It a good practise to uninstall older beta version prior to intall new.

Don't install beta versions if you don't understand what to expect from it, all beta versions have limited 1 week trial period:

Thanks for the hard work guys! I had that issue today, it was saying that it was corrupted or some components was missing, first thing that came to my mind?? Install the latest version of AB due to time limit, Woot!

I'll stick with beta 5 since 6 has time limit :/ anyhow, can't wait for the final 1.5. Really enjoy using AfterBurner.

Final version of Afterburner 1.5.0 will be launched at 2/10 with Kombustor latest version. If beta version is expired, please use Afterburner 1.4.2 first.

Just a reminder that the beta 6 coming expired. At least coming soon according to the time zone.

theGryphon · 02-03-2010, 09:02 | posts: 86 | User is Offline

Hmm, being issued on Jan 28th, it should expire on Feb 7th. That's 4 (four) days from today.

What time zone are you in?

That's weird... I hope I won't have to restart my PC till the 1.5.0 final is here...

It seems like the final version is uploaded on the file server... We should hear from Garrett today

Thanks Unwinder and the MSI team!

Oh what the hell??? Today i had this error, form Afterburner 1.5.0 beta 5:

What is that, spanish? Portuguese?

I could not run Afterburner anymore. So i uninstalled it completely and got Beta 6. Same problem (at least the error message now is in english, lol).
I tried rebooting, uninstalling again, rolling back to Beta 5.
Nothing, Afterburner is screwed up on my pc

Beta 5 is expired as beta 6 is. You must use 1.4.2 stable.

Edit: Afterburner 1.5.0 is online, I think it's the final version

Oh, that message isn't in Portuguese, for sure
