ok thanks. Yes I read that about W7 Home versus the Pro version. If
true this is really bad. I ofcourse have the Home version. I always
understood that you need the Pro version if you have complicated
networks but my little home network works fine with the Home version.

Ed,
I had a very recent version of Java (not more than 5-6 weeks old) but
I saw there was a 7/30/2010 version so I downloaded that yesterday.
However, I'm reluctant to download the latest version of TWS until IB
notifies me my specific problem is fixed. So, bottom line, Java isn't
effecting me one way or the other.
Regarding my more general Amibroker hanging, etc. problem, I've sent
several crash reports to Amibroker support. Tomasz identified two
problems which had probably caused some of my problems: (1) I had a
beta version of AB (version 5.30.0) and not the final release version
and (2) I had a version of Quotes Plus which he said was incompatible
with W7. After fixing these problems (updated both programs), however,
I'm still having problems and Tomasz is looking at the data from those
runs. At least one of the problems resulted when running with Amiquote
data from Yahoo so it's not entirely a data source problem.
Besides Amibroker, other variables in the problem are IO and Windows
7. Since I had run my (weekly) IO job for several years without a
problem, I'm thinking of going back to XP Pro if I don't get the issue
resolved shortly. I still have XP Pro on an old laptop so think I'll
try to verify the latest versions of QP and AB run on it before
changing one or both of my other computers back. The laptop isn't a
viable long-term solution since it's slow and memory constrained.
Somebody had mentioned compatibility problems (programs hanging, etc)
with W7 Basic that aren't problems in W7 Pro. I am running with W7
Ultimate which is presumably one step up from Pro.
Not much useful information for you above other than to let you know
I'm still having hanging and crash problems.

possibly the problem is there, not sure yet.

TWS vanishing has been reported. It doesn't happen everyday but I have
my XP machine running and a new W7 machine and it only happens on de
W7 machine. I hear the bells going that AB's real time connection is
down and then I find the TWS has completely disappeared,

"chatting" with IB support people, I decided to go back to a version I
knew worked correctly (end of May TWS build). That has been working
okay for me and I'm to be notified if (when) my problem is fixed.

I can find something. Other strange thing happen on this Window 7
machine as well. Sometimes when I start Amibroker it "hangs". Need to
kill it and start it again. Other times when I shut down WIndows 7 it
also "hangs" and have to turn switch off to turn the machine of.
Things like that ...
