Hi there,
I've got a serious problem:
System:
- new laptop (ACER 522 TX) with Win2000 German preinstalled
- CVI 5.5 is the only app that is installed on that machine
- CVI 5.5 Servicepack 1 is installed
Problem:
CVI works correctly (edit / compile...) but:
- compile menudemo.prj for debugging (or any other project with menus): OK
- run menudemo from the IDE: OK
- open menus: OK
- open the file open menu entry: SYSTEM CRASH
- compile menudemo for release and start it from the IDE: same behaviour
- run menudemo from the prompt: everything works correctly!
SYSTEM CRASH means:
An empty window opens; hourglass mouse cursor. The mouse cursor
can still be moved. No other Win2000 application can be
started. Occasionally I can click the X butt
on to close the window,
but I will only get a message that I try to kill a running application; this
window is equipped with two incomplete buttons. Pressing
Ctrl-Alt-Del causes the system to hang completely,
the mouse can't be moved anymore. I can only turn off
the system by the shutting down the power.
I've tried to install CVI 5.5 on Win98SE and WinNT4.0 on the
same machine: no problems! Somehow it seems as if Win2000
handles the file open dialogs different and CVI is not
capable of dealing with this (I think the text on the package
says: for Win NT AND Win 2000....?)
Hope somebody can help!
