Live keeps crashing!!!!

Post by lithium » Thu Apr 28, 2005 11:19 pm

I just bought Live 4.1.2 last week but it seems to be crashing for some unknown reason. I am running it on an AMD XP 1600+ with 512 RAM and Windows Me. Live will work for a while but then the screen goes black and my system reboots. Please, how can I fix this?

Windows ME? I think you just answered your own question.

Worst... operating... system... EVER!

I had a feeling it might be Me.

if your system is rebooting on you that probably has to do with your system settings and nothing to do with Live. check your system settings to make sure it doesn't have some sort of shutdown after a certain amount of time. (should be power settings or something like that; i've never used ME but i assume it is similar like that to 98, 95, and xp). hope this helps. andrew

Hi lithium,

like AndrewDuke already wrote, a reboot of the system indicates more a problem with the operating system setup itself as with Live.

Beside a possible special problem with your system Windows Me is not official supported from us a we did not test on it. Form our experience the support from other other hard & software vendors are very low too. So I would recommend you to upgrade to Windows XP if it is possible.

regards,
Alex
