Simple CD tray opener pausing

I recently installed Simple CD tray opener 1.7 onto my new Windows 7 Home Premium machine. On occasion it pauses on count down. I don't know if there is a hot key for this or not. I almost had to use my Back up release ( :oops: My roommate.) Does anyone have any idea why?

My system is NOT completely up to date
I may be using an older version.

Thank You
Squirrel

As someone who grew up with the "blue screen of death" familiar to all early users of Mr Gates' -let the public find out where the bugs are - operating systems and a life-long Electronics Engineer, I would never trust my safety to a computer !

I can offer you no assistance with the software, but suggest you try using the well-researched ice-cube technique, it may not be as accurate, but ice always melts (unless the ambient temperature means your are risking hypothermia! :rofl: )

how long was the pause?it could make for some interesting times.
is it just the counter or the whole program.
I mean does the counter pause but the program keep running?

I found the problem and solution.

Problem
If you have either window (Red window or green bar) selected and hit alt the timer will pause. Once something else is clicked on, the timer continues.

Solution
Now I play with "beeps" selected.

My account was flagged after this post was created. Due to not being able to post, I gave up.
SORRY for the delayed response. Hope this helps.

This would normally not be a problem for anyone. I was blindfolded at the time XD.
