Got my machine

Post by fdwrench » Wed Nov 28, 2012 11:38 am

Hi,

Finally got my machine Phillips Respironics REMstar Auto with A-Flex. (60 series).
Any thoughts on this machine?

Downloaded SleepyHead and then the patch. Can not open the patch, says that I am missing a mingwm10.Dll file. I have no idea what that means.

Should I try the Encore software? Where can I download it?

Wish me luck
Ed

I think you'll be very happy with your CPAP machine and I wish you the best of luck.

I recommend that you go with Sleepyhead. If you have Sleepyhead installed, do this to install the patch.

Make sure Sleepyhead is not running.
Open the following folder on your PC: C:\Program Files (x86)\SleepyHead
Delete the Sleepyhead.exe file allready in the folder and move the Sleepyhead.exe patch file from your download directory to this folder. Then open Sleepyhead as normal.

Rename the old file to sleepyheadold.exe or some such. That way, it will be easier to reverse if something goes wrong.
