hi<br><br>I'm running pd vanilla on vista and the only problem I've had so far was when i installed pd-extended on the same machine. It was a registry mess up which was solved by rebooting vista with "last known working configuration" option (i guess it just changes all the latest major registry changes back to the previous ones). Since i didn't really need pd-extended (i prefer using pd vanilla and just adding the extra libs that i need) my problems ended there.<br>
<br>About the firewall, when you install and run pd for the first time you get a message from vista informing you that pd wants network access. By choosing "unblock" you will never see that message again and pd will do its work smoothly through the firewall.<br>
<br>About running pd with admin rights, i think it is not necessary. I mean, i never run pd as an admin and it.. works! :-)<br><br>And some extra info: I installed vista sp2 yesterday and had no problems with pd (or with anything else. Yet).<br>
<br><br>Lastly, just to make sure that IOhannes talks to me next time we meet, i don't really like windows. I just have to work with it until i am brave enough for linux.<br><br><br>alabala<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

hello,<br>when pd works in safe mode, I guess your pd runs with admin rights.<br>so try to run pd with right-click --> run as administrator. When pd works now, you can turn off<br>this security lock completely: <br><a href="http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-the-easy-way-on-windows-vista/" target="_blank">http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-the-easy-way-on-windows-vista/</a><br>
<br>note here, that vista updates allways change your user settings again, so i guess your pd runs not anymore since a genius vista update..<br><br>cheers<br>moritz<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, May 26, 2009 at 3:28 AM, IOhannes m zmoelnig <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:zmoelnig@iem.at" target="_blank">zmoelnig@iem.at</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I work with pd in vista. since a week pd doesn't run anymore cuz every<br>
time I open pd I got the message that pd.exe has stopped working and<br>
windows can check online for a solution to the problem, so it will<br>

to give us a better idea of what is going on, it would (might) help a lot if you could also tell with which version of Pd you are experiencing the problem. e.g. does the problem persist if you uninstall e.g. Pd-extended 0.27 and install Pd-vanilla 0.33 instead, or the other way round? (make sure you grab the newest (stable) versions, not any of the random numbers i gave above)<br>
<br>
furthermore: problems with Pd on w32 usually exist because Pd uses a network-connection between the core-application and the GUI. firewalls usually don't like this, make sure that the Pd.exe process is allowed to make a connection (either by creating an "allow"-rule in your firewall, or by turning off the firewall completely (which i would not recommend))<br>
<br>
finally: please make sure to use meaningful subjects. e.g. "help" is bad as our mailinglist software will interpret "help" as an "administrative command" (read: it thinks that you are asking for help about how to use the mailinglist, not about the topic of the list), and make the poor administrator of this mailinglist (read: me) to moderate your email.<br>
