SysStats Docklet crashing HELP!!!!!!!!

Ok...so I have the following

vista home premium
ObjectDock Plus v 1.90 Plus
Buid 535u
and have Stardock Central

I have searched and tried the folowing options:

If you have SDC make sure in the tools tab you click on settings and in the general setting you have both of the "enable mcp" boxes UNchecked,then go into your program files folder and in the stardock folder you go into the objectdock folder and in there find the file "stardocktray.dll" and copy this file somewhere in a different folder so you can retrieve this file if this solution does not work.Now that you have done this REname the file"stardocktray.dll" to anything you like (I used junk for example).Now once that is done Reboot system,when you are all back up and running(make sure OD+ is not going to start up automatically and is not runnig at all)Now go into program folder and in the stardock folder go into objectdock folder and now delete "stardocktray.dll>renamed "junk",now the file no longer resides in that folder.Last part,start up SDC and check mark both ENABLE MCP and then make sure OD+ is setup to automatically load on start up,Now REBOOT the system and when it all is loaded up you should now have your systray icons showing.

As well As:

Also, MCP is no longer needed for tray functionality and might get in the way. After you've gone through the steps above to diagnose, I'd also recommend trying to get rid of SDMCP. In the next version I hope to include something that will take of this automatically. But anyways for diagnosis sake... End it's process, and go ahead and find the SDMCP exe and dll.... and rename them (put and "_old" after their filenames, so you can restore it later if you really need to). You can find SDMCP files in your "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Stardock" directory. Files you'll want to rename.... "mcpcore.dll" and "sdmcp.exe". (You can't just delete them as they will be "in use", but you should be able to rename them fine.) At this point, do a reboot, and they will no longer be in use. Try ObjectDock's SystemTray out then (preferably with UAC off if on Vista, but you can try it with it on too if you do in fact use UAC). Knowing if this fixes the problem for you or not would definitely help the situation for you and others as well


And I still get a crash when I try to use the sysstats docklet!! PLEASE HELP....
