Guys What's happening with OD2 at the moment? Seems like very little development on this fab app. Can we expect any minor/major changes in the next month or so? thanks!

It doesnt happen with Windowblinds unloaded, this seems to be a windowblinds bug. How/where can I report this to stardock/wb developers?

ok, that is exactly what happens on mine! UIS0 skins paint correctly (try the UIS0 skins - aero coloured etc.) Maybe the issue is specific to UIS2 skins, which accounts for the majority of the best skins out there... Still not sure if it's a WB or Opus bug?

Guys I am trying to figure out whether it's a bug in Dopus or Windowblinds or even something else.. Can you please use your favourite wb skin, load up directory opus and perform the following? a.) In Dopus, go to help/license manager b.) Click Install New Certificate c.) Click Load Does the explorer dialogue paint correctly? Please let me know your results and version of WB used, thanks!

right, so to this date the issue still remains. Does anyone know what might be the issue? Another skin that doesn't have this problem is the excellent 'team time'.

Nope, still the same error. Maybe this is a VMWS7 issue after all...

OK, I removed the beta build of WB7 and installed 7.01 public... The VMWare WS7 issue does not happen anymore :-) It must be a bug introduced in Build 255 beta????? ------------------- Your computer has a Windows Experience Index base score of 7.6 Your Windows Graphics Experience score is 7.8 WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 7.01 (build 247 - Windows 7 Edition) - 64 bit OS WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this

[quote who="Phoon" reply="8" id="2599405"]I've tested this and could not duplicate the issue. I'm running it on a Dell Precision Workstation 690. 4GB Ram, Latest build of WB, Windows 7 x64. Video is NVIDIA Quadro FX 570. VMWare Workstation 7.0.1 build-227600. Running Alluminate by VStyler as my windowblind. You referenced driver version 197.45. I'm assuming that was a typo as the latest is 197.54 and there is no .45 version located in the archives.

[quote who="Shirley " reply="5" id="2599179"]What percentage of system memory are you assigning to the guest machine when this issue occurs?[/quote] 25% - around 1-1.5GB out of the 4GB assigned to VMWare WS. I doubt it's a WS configuration issue as I only need to kill wbvista.exe for the issue to go away.

I just repeated the same test of killing the process wbvista.exe while using VMWare Workstation and the error goes away. --------------- WB details: Your computer has a Windows Experience Index base score of 7.6 Your Windows Graphics Experience score is 7.8 WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 7.1 (build 255 - Windows 7 Edition) - 64 bit OS (Dell U2410(Digital)) 1 is attached to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 Wblind.dll &nb

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="2" id="2597862"]I suspect the crash in the nvidia driver and BSOD are being caused by your machine simply running out of memory. A user mode app like WindowBlinds wouldn't be capable of crashing a video driver, but it could be using just enough memory to push the machine over the edge.[/quote] Possible, but with the same memory settings and WB7 removed, WS7 works perfectly with no issues for hours. As soon as I enable a WB7 t

Further testing concludes that if I kill the wbvista.exe process it also fixes the vmware crash.

Hi I am experiencing a strange issue with the latest Windowblinds 7 downloaded via Impulse and VMWare Workstation 6.5/7.0 on my Windows 7 X64 and EVGA GTX295 gfx card using Nvidia 197.45 drivers. When using VMWare workstation to run guest machines, at random times (mostly during heavy memory/disk IO) VMWare would crash/hang/BSOD or even cause the nvidia display driver to crash with the following error message logged in vmware.log ...
