If you look at the README in the MSDE directory on the disk, it says you need that File and Print Sharing turned on, and also to set the device driver installation preferences: 1. In Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools. 2. Double-click Local Security Policy. 3. Expand Local Policies. 4....

Thanks for all the great suggestions, everyone. The night I posted, I decided to try the nasal pillows again - the design of the CL2's headgear looks better suited to the pillows than the simple cushion, and I hadn't had any seal problems... so it was just the nostril pain. I reasoned that if I woke...

Mask issues - ComfortLite 2

Hey, folks, I'm nearing the end of my first week on CPAP, and although I'm fine with the pressure, and I'm beginning to feel the effects (qualitatively better already) I seem to have started like so many with some mask problems. I have a ComfortLite2 mask, that I tried first with nasal pillows, but ...

Encore Pro 1.8 install hangs

Hey folks, stop me if this is going to get anyone in trouble, but Encore Pro 1.8 is hanging on install at the point where it says it's installing MSSQL - it's been like that for over a day (I left it on while I was at work, and giving torrenty goodness back). Anyone run into this on WinXPsp2? As an ...

I was in a similar situation... presented with a list of DMEs and told to just pick one. I declined. The sleep center I went to didn't really understand why, although when I explained, they were fine with giving me my prescription and PSG (this morning). Later, I called billmyinsurance.com, and foun...

Hi, SleeplessinCLE, Have you asked your husband about it? It's a big change, there's no denying that, but I wonder if maybe your fear that he won't find you attractive is something you're transferring to him? Talk to your doctor, also, about the terror you felt, and if you can, try different masks. ...

Thanks for the responses, everyone. Snoredog - what's a PSG? (Is it a term that belongs in CPAPopedia?) I do have a 50% copay, and a colleague directed me here in the first place because he bought an APAP from CPAP.com; I'm fortunate enough to have half-way decent insurance a good enough salary that...

New diagnosis, some advice sought

Hey, folks, I just had my titration study last night, and have spent a weird day dealing with how well I slept. Spooky. Anyway, when I was leaving the study, the tech. handed me a sheet of paper with some local health care equipment providers; she'd checked the ones that my insurance covers, and sai...
