Hi,
Since a couple of weeks now I have a problem with Eagle 5.3 Professional.
It has worked without problems, thats make the problem vague.
It runs on a Windows 7 Ultimate laptop, 3GB intern memory, 32bit.
I can put a component in the schematic.
But when I select is with the 'Move' function and click on a componet, my screen becomes gray and there comes a error 'Eagle doesn't react anymore and would be closed' (in Dutch off course, so I don't know if I translated it correctly).
The problem only happens when I'd selected the 'Move button'.
Any other buttons/functions works fine.. Very strange, but maybe it's a known problem?
The problems happens in the Schematic Editor and in the Board Editor.
I tried running both in 'compatibility mode', run it as administrator and run it as 'XP Pro SP3'.
But still got the problem.
I tried reïnstalling (even with Revo Uninstaller Pro), but the strange point is, that when I reinstall Eagle, it has my own configuration again.. so somewhere on my harddisk Eagle put a configuration file, which (in my opinion) I need to delete before reinstall Eagle completely.
I tried it (without deleting that file, described above) and the problem stays.
I installed it on another computer, also Windows 7 Ultimate but a 64bit, and there it works fine.
But I'm wondering what kind of solution there is for my laptop?
Anyone an idea?
