complete ableton failure

Post by burning2nd » Tue Jun 08, 2010 10:36 am

sorry I'm on my phone sitting out side work ( time to go in) anyway let me get this started so when I get home I might be a lil futher then right now,

my problem is all abelton products fail to launch on m computer.
after u click the icon the rectangle box in black and white comes up in the bottem left corner
anichuateing midi the tracks ( real fast) and when it gets to the anichuateing applacation it freezes up, let it sit for 20 min then it closes and u get a box saying "ableton has incountered a serous problem and will close after u click on"

sorry if this is ruff cut I'll fill in details later when I can see what I'm typeing

evga 680sli board, 2 gigs of OZC pc8500, 2.6g core two duo
evga gt9500 video card and a creative xfi extreem gamer
runing xp pro

I've had this problem several times resulting in a format to fix, I uninstall it and reinstall and I get the same thing. its like it's not uninstalling fully,

I think I covered most of the start I'll be back in a few hours maybe I can get some better ideas here,

lIke a said it's all ableton products live, lite 6,7,8 demo nothing will run anymore and Im tired of the format

I think it's a conflict of some sort, also I have a m audio key rig 49

Hello,

If you can send us your "Log.txt" file, we can investigate in the cause.
The Log.txt file can be found in following location:
•Mac OS X: /User/Library/Preferences/Ableton
•Windows (Live 4 and later versions): C:/Documents and Settings/yourusername/Application Data/Ableton/Live/Preferences
•Windows Vista/Win7: c:/users/username/appdata/roaming/ableton/live/ preferences/

Note that on some Windows systems the application data folder is hidden by default. Here is what you have to do to make it visible:
Windows XP/2000
1.Launch Explorer.
2.Select Tools/Folder Options/View.
3.Check "Show hidden files and folders."

Send it to [email protected] with a link to this post. Thanks.

best,
Christian
