Quote Try File > New Project.

Same result Optodata,

I've just installed the Version 8 trial and it works fine?

Tried my licenced V4 again ... no change unfortunately

You didn't post (or actually, attach) the entire DxDiag results, but the Acer website also shows updated nVidia drivers for your system.

You can also try unchecking this box in CD4:

Otherwise, since you've already uninstalled/resinstalled, there may not be a whole lot of other options.

You know that CD8 works, so you at least have a path forward. It's also possible that if you attached your entire DxDiag results, there might be something in there that stands out to someone here on the forum.

Quote You didn't post..

Just tried unchecking acceleration, restarted CD ... no joy
It all seems to work, it passes ok from PD to CD and back

but CD locks up when closing CD or passing back to PD (PD continues to work)

It's useable, I just have to batch kill it and it doesn't save any ini

have attached file.

Thanks for the response Optodata

Thanks for the new details and for attaching the DxDiag results. Nothing in there stands out as a significant driver issue. However, the end of the file shows the last 10 significant crashes, and besides CD4, there are two from Explorer.exe.

You may want to try the two numbered steps in this post to see if there are any issues with your Windows installation that can be easily found and repaired. You might be surprised at how many times OS deep issues are the root causes of crashes with Cyberlink editing tools.
