Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: puredata Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Matteo Sisti Sette (sistisette) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: pd hangs in windows Vista and won't work until system reboot

Initial Comment: Sometimes (unfortunately I haven't observed any apparent cause that triggers the problem), I open PD and it won't create a new patch (file/new) nor open any patch (file/open). It won't even quit untill I kill the process, and clicking on "DIO errors" doesn't produce any printout. Furthermore, all menus of the menu bar are empty (only a "--" item) except the File menu.

Even if I kill and restart PD, it won't ever work, untill I reboot the operating system, then everything is fine.

This is PD Vanilla 0.42.5 on Windows Vista.

When it gets "frozen" like this, if I launch it with -lib Gem (I have Gem installed), it won't print the usual Gem output on the console (no output at all). After reboot, everything usually works.

This happens every once in a while, and it is NOT necessary after some crash or anything.
