Help EA's wont load

OK ive been having issues with the strategy tester it just alll out stopped working for me. In addition I kept getting a live update alert and it wouldint connect. So I downloaded the platform again. Dropped all my old experts back into the experts folder and nadda, nothing, zero, zilch.

The old experts I had wont show up on the experts navigator. So ok maybe its just a flakey PC thing. Reboot run a system scan make sure the machine is up to par. Scan is clean back to business.

Mind you this is a new computer that only goes online to get email for when I email indicators and expert advisors to myself. Im ultra paranoid what can I say.

Open MT4 again Still EA's are not showing up with acception to the MACD Sample and the Moving Average experts that come with the platform. I decide to recompile one of the old experts that I know work. Hit compile make sure the freshly compiled advisor is in the experts folder. AND........

NOTHING! At this point im a lil stressed and im ready to take a axe to my machine. Either that or give up on trading and hustle roulette. So I was just wondering if anyone had any idea on how to fix this. Or if there is something that im just missing.

How old were the EAs? Were they for MT4 or MT3?

If they were MT4 EAs my blind guess would be you have copied the expert adviser files into the wrong experts folder. Perhaps you have more than one set of MT4 folders. Are you sure the new downloaded platform used the same folder name as the old one? You might try something like temporarily changing the name of or saving to a new name the default MACD expert. Make sure the new name shows up in the MT4 navigator then check with windows explorer that the newly named EA is in the same folder with your other saved EAs.

About not staying online except for email, trading with an EA requires staying online all the time.

Ok this is just weird. After I posted this message I uninstalled everything downloaded from interbank again rebooted again. Still nothing.

Just after I downloaded the experts didint show up I figured I was gonna have to fight with my pc for a bit. So I walked away for a few hours hit the playstation let my machine rest for a few hours and now the EA's show up just fine.

As per the online activity I keep price feeds on 24 hours a day for making posts and surfing the net I do all that stuff on a seperate computer. So in a sense i use one computer for trading and keeping my account ledgers and the other computer is for fun and education.

Thanx for the help mate Im in the process of converting to a mt user Vt has been really flakey since their new version came out and the things I used to automate while I was sleeping. I can no longer rely on.
