Here is a download & upload speed test.  This info is handy when trying to determine how long it will take to download a Hy-Tek 10MB update.  A typical DSL or Cable broadband connection tested at 2500kbps (2.5mbps) will download 10megs in about 30-45 secs.
Just click on the testing icon, and then select a server.

Hy-Tek Software Updates & Upgrades
Now Playing: Phil
Topic: Hy-Tek Updates
Here is the information & links for software updates and upgrades for both Team Manager 4.0 and Meet Manager 2.0 Updates...
Both TM 4.0 and MM 2.0 now support their own Check for Updates menu commands. Just click on the menu command and follow the directions.
Of course, the team computer must be connected to the Internet for this command and download to work.

Here are 2 online access tests. If your computer fails to display either website test, you will not be able to use the Check for Updates feature, and must manually download the updates.

• Hy-Tek website test - Microsoft FTP website test

The ZIP update files may be manually downloaded by any computer, and then manually copied & installed on the team computer. These "updates" are from 3meg to 10meg in size.
These ZIP files may be manually downloaded directly from the Hy-Tek download webpage. After they are manually downloaded and saved to your local hard disk, do not UnZip them - leave them alone... Team Manager and Meet Manager will handle them directly as ZIP files.
For Manual Updates: / File / Install Update / (follow directions)

• Hy-Tek Website - Download Center
• Hy-Tek Website - Team Manager 4.0 Updates Download
• Hy-Tek website - Team Manager 5.0 Updates Download 
• Hy-Tek Website - Meet Manager 2.0 Updates Download
• Hy-Tek software pricing sheet - note new $25 CD cost (4/10/08)

Installing TM/MM on Microsoft Vista
Now Playing: Phil
Topic: Hy-Tek Updates

Here is a note from Hy-Tek support...
----
The biggest issue can be a new install of TM or MM on Vista.  Back in September of 2006 we changed the installer software that we use to install both TM and MM.  Our new and current installer works just fine with Vista.  The old installer doesn't.

The easy way to tell which you have is to look at the files on your
installation CD.  If you have only 2 files, you have the new installer.  If you have a bunch - about 14 or 15, you have the old installer.

In that circumstance we highly recommend ordering a replacement CD ($10 + Shipping & Handling) from our sales office (866-456-5111).

Thanks,
Bob Matlack,
Director of Technical Support

Error - cstext32.ocx and cscmd32.ocx could not be registered
Now Playing: Phil
Topic: Hy-Tek Updates
A team recently encountered this error, and we thought we would post this for future reference.
Problem: cstext32.ocx and cscmd32.ocx could not be registered.
This error message can occur when installing or running Team Manager or Meet Manager.
Cause: This problem is due to the recent Windows XP/SP2 and Windows 2003 updates that caused cstext32.ocx and cscmd32.ocx to become outdated.

Here is the Hytek link - http://www.hy-tekltd.com/Hy-SP2.html
