Henry... I have had this freezing in XP as well. I posted on it in the make music forum as well as here. For me, it seems to have to do with playback. 2008a loses responsiveness to mouse clicks, the score will not move, and most tools are unresponsive. What is the "Clean reinstall" procedure...at this point I'm willing to try anything!! Thanx...Jim W.

The result has been a "freeze" of FINALE to the point of needing a re-start to get out of FINALE. I've lost months of valuable time due to this. I've been writing to the list about these recently. MAKEMUSIC support has been helpful, though the most recent correction has involved a "clean" re-install of FINALE. The process is not for the timid and requires nearly an hour to complete. I know that I run a complex setup, and I stress the app terribly. I suspect VISTA is also part of the problem. One result of my experience may be new install procedures. For the re-install I had to use the Device Manager to disable all but a few apps in my account. I hope this info is usefull to the list. I suspect we may have more such issues as our hardware and software evolve.
