Hi everyone. I hate to sound stupid here however I have been trying to use the ASU for a while now. I have installed it on two different machines and keep getting the same result. When I open it I get a prompt to ask for my passsword. I put in my password but it doesn't accept it. When I cancel it then I get the regular prompt for password. My password works there and the program closes. I would love to try this out but have never been able to get it to work. The two computers I have tried to use it on are Intel and AMD. Any suggestions would be so appreciated.

What version of ASU are you using? Also, where are you keeping your ASU app (dir/file)?

kwood129 10-14-2008 08:20 PM

I have the latest version that came on the ideneb 10.5.5 DVD. I have tried several versions of this and all the same result. Right now I have the ASU in the Core services folder. I have also tried putting this in many different places including usb hard drives and thumb drives. All with the same result.

Hmm. Ok.
I know they aren't available on the WIKI anymore so here are the files again in case those you've found were corrupted. Give it a try. They work for me.

AMD Patcher 0.2:

Ok I have a screenshot of what I get on my computer. It brings up the prompt for my password as shown here. The problem is that my password doesn't work. I tried the patcher and the updater that you posted (thank you for that) but it was the same result. I hope this screenshot helps.

Your password doesn't contain only letters and/or numbers right ?

kwood129 10-16-2008 08:45 PM

my password has symbols, letters and numbers. Is there one of these that needs to be removed?

zephyroth 10-16-2008 10:15 PM

You must remove the symbols.

kwood129 10-17-2008 01:53 AM

That worked like a charm! You're awesome!! Is there any way that you might be updating this to accept symbols?

Zeph may be updating his ASU soon but if you visit the WIKI to see the stuff he's been working on in "Zeph's Space", you'll see he's got bigger fish to feed right now:

Here is a little video of AutoPatchDaemon 0.1

I plan to work very hard on it to make ASU and AMD Patcher useless ... Here's what I plan to do on it until it's released :>

Watch the whole hard drive and detect any changes (applications, frameworks ...)
Detect if an installer is running and patch installed files on fly
Detect if Apple Software Update is running and is installing something and patch every files on fly
Patch this damn kernel for AMD !
