DreamStation Help Needed

Post by ala5081 » Mon Apr 25, 2016 8:54 pm

I have a problem and need help. I used Sleepyhead on my old S9 machine and it corrupted my data card according to the technicians when I went in for a visit. I have just gotten DreamStation and my AHI is running in the 40's. I changed it tonight to Auto to see if it will help. I would love to use Sleepyhead to see my data but I am on a 90 day trial to satisfy insurance company. Does anyone know what could have happened with my problem with Sleepyhead or possibly why my AHI's are running in the high 40's. Thanks in advance for any help.

sleepyhead has *NO CODE* to write anything to your SD card. the technicians were wrong.

your OS may have written files on there that the s9 didn't like, and then the S9 would tell you it was going to reformat the sd card.

but, it wasn't sleepyhead.

It's your computer that is doing it. Windows 8 is bad about it. Did you LOCK your SD card before putting it in your computer?? There is lots of info on this problem...just use the SEARCH at top left corner.
