Installation as service on Windows Vista

[Drakull]

I'm trying to insall it as a service in windows vista (so I can use multiprocessor capabilities without losing results when restarting the computer) but is always giving me an error when running sobsvc -i

C:\Program Files\SB>sobsvc -i
Seventeen or Bust service failed to install. Error 5

How do I install it as a service in vista or how do i set it up to use more than one processor in normal mode (saving all the tests and not just one).

Just create a shortcut to the sobsvc.exe executable, modify the shortcut to add the -i (or whatever parameter you need) and then run the shortcut with the "run as administrator" option.

Or use the runas command in CMD.
- windowskey+r, cmd, enter
if SB is installed in c:\program files\SB, type:
- cd c:\program files\SB
then use the runas command to execute sobsvc.exe -i
- runas /user:administrator@%COMPUTERNAME% sobsvc.exe -i
