I'm using Acid 4 on a WinXP DAW that has no internet facilities. Launching Acid activates the service "Terminal Services", which I have disabled as part of my tweaks. I guess the service is required for GetMedia, but I don't require this on my machine, and would like to configure Acid to not start this service. Is this possible?
Thanks for any assistance,

Currently, if you have Terminal Services disabled, you will recieve a dialog stating that an "Unknown Error has occurred" when running ACID. The software then appears to function normally (at least I haven't found it to cause any problems with functionality yet). There is not a way around this at the time being. I will put it on the list of things to look at for future revisions.

I'd like to see it gone as well. I too have an audio only PC and the error is annoying. Not to mention that I don't think many people appreciate their app connecting to the internet to gather or send information. I know that SF has good intentions, but allow us to uncheck it in the "advanced" settings or something. Give us the choice.

Thanks,
