Bahh.. Uhm.. That's odd. It sounds as though while it was enumerating your memory stick, something did something bad. I know that generally its a bad idea (and may produce similar results) if you remove the MS while reading/writing to it, but there shouldn't be anything in plucker that's doing that. > I had 2 plucker files on the card, most of them in main memory.

If you were to delete plucker entirly from your device (be sure you have a backup of your documents ofcourse) then reinstall it from scratch, does it still fail to start? What kind of error messages do you get when you 'still cannot launch plucker'? Does it just quit silently? or reset? > Anyone else have a problem like this?

I havn't heard of any other problems like this from anyone. Atleast not in the order and method as you describe. If you can get everything back up and running again (by turfing plucker and installing the newest version fresh), I would encourage you to try to recreate the problem and see if you can break it again. If it's something that can be reproduced, it should be easy for me to recreate the problem here and fix it. -- Adam McDaniel Array.org Calgary, AB, Canada _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
