OK, thanks for testing. I'm still working on the assumption that the new random-number generation code is somehow generating illegal instructions for the athlon. I've now put up a revised build, gretl-1.9.4-no_sse2a.exe, at http://sourceforge.net/projects/gretl/files/gretl/1.9.4/ If that still doesn't work, it's possible that there's something in the updated GTK library stack, packaged with gretl, that is choking your system; and I can try a build using an older version of GTK. But if this version won't start, can I ask you try a debugging run and see what you get? To start gretl in debugging mode, create a desktop shortcut item for gretl, but after the path to gretlw32 add --debug, for example "c:\program files\gretl\gretlw32.exe" --debug You should get a console window with some messages that might help in diagnosing the problem.
