    I prepared a new build that includes pdb files.

    Please try this version and post the error message in this thread. The error message in this build should have line numbers and that will allow me to narrow down what is causing the crash.

    Ok. I have been experiencing this error. I have installed 1.5Beta but still getting error. Hope this helps...

    What OS are you running Claude?

    And are you using 32 or 64 bit?

    And what processor brand? AMD or Intel?

  4. claude lang

    Running Win 7 Ultimate 64Bit CPU is AMD FX-8350..

    Also, i just noticed that the error did not manifest itself this morning when i powered up my pc... Brightness controller is running in the background.

    Cheers
