Windows 7 Crashing issue

Post by NigelB »

Hi

I've been running Cumulus on a previous Vista machien fo sometime wiht no problems.

I've now moved to Windows 7 64 bit and am having problems as follows

1) Sometimes Cumulus just crashes and disappears
2) Sometimes Cumulus is still running but with no update to the data, on closing Cumulus I get a brief 'Exception' screen

I upload data to my website

I am running version 1.9.0 build 958

Thanks

Nigel

Is a bugreport.txt file produced in the Cumulus folder when it crashes?

Assuming one of the problems occurred recently, please zip up the diags folder and attach it.

You have some kind of USB problem:

27/11/2010 18:09:49.187 : Error!!! Failed to write to USB!

This is the cause of the data updates stopping, and possibly also the cause of the crashes.
