Hi Ben, There is a Microsoft bug in the Windows Runtime manifest file that I include in the ParaView release that makes it not work on XP SP2. I have fixed it and am currently regenerating a binary that will work on SP2. The other solution as mentioned by Pierre is to just upgrade to SP3.
Thanks for your patience. On Mon, Jul 27, 2009 at 8:35 AM, Utkarsh Ayachit < [email protected]> wrote: > We are tracking down the Windows XP SP2 issue.
