Hello, I have now made some very simple tests after installing win2k SP4 in a Virtual Box.
1) gerbv 2.5.0 under Win2k starts with the error message Nick describes. 2) gerbv 2.4.0 under Win2k does not start with this error message. 3) gerbv 2.5.0 under WinXP does not start with this error message. My first suspect is some of the third party library. Dan, is there any third party package that got upgraded between 2.4.0 and 2.5.0?
