Same procedure: 10 min -> Dr.Watson I installed IDL on another WinNT, SP4 - machine Same procedure: 10 min -> Dr.Watson Frustrating! HJH

Last week I installed an updated graphics driver. Soon after I noticed a fatal error every time I tried to connect to the Internet. Absolutely reproducible. I de-installed the driver and re-installed the previous one. No help. I re-installed the Dial-up connection service, which is the code causing the error. No help. I re-installed *all* my network services. No help. I went back to the very first graphics drivers and installed all up to the last update. No help. Finally, it's about 2:30 AM and I say to hell with it and I re-install the updated driver that caused me all the problems in the first place. Bingo. Problem solved. AAAAAAuuuuughhhh! Cheers, David P.S.

I presume you have plenty of virtual memory? I have a GByte on a hard-disk partition that I give over to swap space. Windows is weird, weird, weird. But I have to say that when I get a software combination stable I almost *never* crash. I just live in dread of having to update *any* software at all.

The breakdown is not after 10 minutes but after 1 or 2 minutes of intensive IDL operation (I work with large files). I tried to change the display driver, the driver of the sound card, the driver of the network card, the HASP driver, etc. but IDL still crashes. In some cases the whole NT is crashes (blue screen). Can anybody help me? This makes almost impossible for me to work with IDL. Other software (eg. MS Word, Netscape, Corel software, etc) does NOT crashes, only IDL does..... Frustrating.

Linux also has it's own little quirks.

They are very stable. They are more stable as our usage of IDL on IBM aix workstation. R.Bauer
