Interesting. Mine says 1.2.0.1. But I just thought I'd take a spin, and all it does is give me the awful color first screen and go back to the desktop. LOL! Back to the drawing board!

Are you by any chance running Windows XP? I just found the problem with my GPL install. I had turned off the Indexing Service trying something else, and forgot to turn it on. As soon as I enabled it again, everything is fine. -- Chris H.

Chris - any idea why I'd have the same problem you had, but mine's win2k? Start the program, splash screen, dump to desktop. When I first got the computer it did the same thing. Couldn't get it to run. We updated our machine images, and it worked for about a week. Now it's doing the same thing again, and I can't fix it. This computer has a TNT2 video card. Frustrating because it worked for a while, so it can't be the hardware. And, I'm sure it would work FINE with win98se, as my other two 3D card-equipped systems do. I have another win2k system that DOES work, but it doesn't have a 3D card, so I can't use it as a server for many tracks.

Not really sure, Eldred. I haven't run Win2K much, and never with GPL on it, so I really not sure of the inner workings. Is it possible any of your video settings may have changed? Did you maybe run the utility which adjusts various components on the video card - and has the slightly undesired affect of also modifying the various standard clocking? Have you disabled/enabled vsync? Have you installed any add-ons lately? Grasping at straws here a little. 8-) -- Chris H.
