        Dennis no ideas, it is something that I believe we have all seen from 
time to time without any sure solutions. Try a full clean install, including 
replacing the *.BPL and *.DPL files? I seem to recall a similar behaviour being 
solved by the complete replacement of the BPL and DPL files during an 
reinstall. Just vaguely.

Subject: Re: [PEDA] 99SE crashing



hi all

i have 99SE on 3 different boxes, all pretty similar, all WIN2K

on one machine i am getting a pretty consistent & serious problem, but 
not on the others

i have a part (PCB component) which is a pin 1 indicator

it is a triangle made of 6 or so tracks all on the top overlay

(there are no other 'normal' PCB primitives such as pads)

on this one box, quite consistently when i copy one of these to the 
clipboard and paste it around on the SECOND (somethimes third) paste 
operation i get the hour glass and protel has gone into la la land

i waited almost 30 mins for it to recover (i have seen it recover from 
some 'crashes') but it would not

during the protel 'hour glass' crash i noted 100% CPU usage in taskman

after rebooting my board was pretty scrambled and of course all unsaved 
work was lost

so not to let this go i repeated the operation, this after a fresh boot, 
and bang, crashed again exactly as before on the second paste

rebooted again and decided not to paste that thing around anymore :)

then i grabbed a mounting hole (component) and pasted it and on the 
first paste i was crashed again

went to my other boxes and could not reproduce the problem with the same 
board, same component and same operations

any ideas ?
