How to use Autohotkey for Pokerstars

#1 13-04-2008, 12:06 AM

Hi guys,
Im very intrested in this hotkey stuff. I downloaded Autohotkey and found the betpot script which should work with pokerstars.
Somehow I just cant get it working and Im very frustrated about this.
I wanted to ask if someone can help me with it.
Perhaps I downloaded the wrong script or there are other programs to achieve my goal.
It would be really nice if someone could give me a short guideline or some tips.

THX

I also had the same problem when I got my new computer. My script worked with my old computer (XP), but does not run with my new computer (VISTA). It works with other programs, just not pokerstars. I'm wondering if it's the OS?

If you both have Vista try this, you need to alter the Pokerstars.exe to run as Administrator.

Right click on C:\Program Files\PokerStars\PokerStars.exe and select Properties.
Click the Compatibility tab.
Click the Show settings for all users button.
Check the Disable desktop composition checkbox.
Check the Run this program as an administrator checkbox.
Press the OK button.

Works for me.
