I am a new Mac owner here and am amazed at the things you guys can do on these machines. I love the new Macbook Air I bought.

My question is am I able to do the things with geek tool regardless of having a base model air? Or do you need bigger and better hardware and such in order to perform these customizations to macs?

I have the 2012 base model of the Air and Geektools runs fine. You can see my screen here:

So I've managed to set some system monitor gauges set up on my desktop with geek tool. And I've put labels on them with override text in a seperate box corresponding to each. But each time I restart the machine I have to go back in to geek tool and click in each box with the text in order to get it to show again as it disappears.

Can anyone help? I don't have a clue what I'm doing wrong

Might be the way in the code of your geeklet... what are you using? does right mouse clicking on the geektools icon and selecting refresh work instead of having to touch the window?
