[help] Mobydock Causes Hard Freeze

Greetings all -

I recently installed the latest version of this program (.87), and I have run into a slight problem. I have looked through the history on this forum, and have been unable to find any previous problems similar to mine.

When I run MobyDock, usually after I first run my mouse over the icons and they magnify, my computer completely locks up - no hard disk activity, no mose movement, etc, and requires a hard reboot.

Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Relevant specs:

WinXP Pro SP 1

P3 1Ghz

512 MB ram

Geforce2Go 32mb

I have the latest nvidia drivers and the latest version of directx installed.

Thanks,

/-Danrik

Hey, I had the SAME problem and this fixed it for me.

go to www.omegacorner.com and download Omega's newest drivers...and install them.

also, make sure and uninstall your old drivers first...at least with ATI drivers your supposed to remove your drivers.

If that doesn't do it for you try reinstalling DX9 possibly.

good luck!...make another post here if it works!

I wasn't getting a hard freeze, but the dock itself was freezing and acting up.

What I did to fix it was disable the "Return Focus to last active window when idle" Option under the Misc tab.

Thanks for the suggestions - nothing has seemed to solve my problem.

If I figure it out, I will be sure to post the solution here.

My MobyDock has just starte doing the same this morning. It did it about half a dozen tmes before I decided to switch it off (don't have time to bug-chase today).

Strange because nothing has changed with the system overnight and everything was working fine up unitl now.

AMD 3000+

ATI 9700 PRO

Windows XP SP1
