Nice! I like old machines, that is exactly the same CPU as the PdLab build servers :). They have less RAM tho ;). For debugging this, trying running pd in the cmd.exe shell. I would download the .zip package and unzip it somewhere. Then go to Start -> Run -> cmd.exe, and do:
cd path/pd/Pd-extended 0.43.1-extended/pd/bin pd.com -stderr
Then you should see all of the stuff that normally going to the Pd window going to the cmd.exe window.

hi,
i have a bunch of PIII, 733Mhz, 512Mb. Pd-0.42.5 runs smoothly on XP-pro. today i tried the latest nightly-build of P-0.43: it's not possible to open any patch, not even regular help-patches. Pd closes immediately; no warnings.
any suggestions on how to debug this?
