No, I didn't update anything....it was a very basic windows. But I have
tried to run it previously with all the updates on windows updates site,
I've run it every way possible and the only 2 ways it works for me is:
1. in safe mode
2. if I cut my full file into 8 separate files and run a PP Report on
each
one separately. My full file is 65 MB large. I really think that the
size of
my file is ONE of the problems...but not likely the only problem.
However, it works perfectly fine if I just check all new people or any
person who's data has changed (the second box). So, at this point, I
have
pretty much given up on doing a full scan or a scan of everyone
except those
marked 'exclude'

Hi Donna,
when you re-installed XP, did you install the latest Service Pack and
updates from the Microsoft website?
http://update.microsoft.com
Thanks

Well I am not sure you can say it is NOT Legacy. Because it works on
some or
most computers just means it works well in your environment. In my
environment it doesn't work. Obviously I thought there was something
that
conflicts with the functioning of Legacy. However, I have even
reformatted
my drive and installed JUST Legacy...with no other programs or anything.
Still didn't run. So does that mean that ONLY my version of Legacy is
conflicting with Windows XP (since that is the only programs
installed on my
computer after reformatting)
What my original comment was, however, was that it took a lot of
memory to
run the program...and does it really need 65 MB to run a report. My
issue
with Potential problems report has been long standing and I just
don't use
it anymore because it doesn't work. But will the memory demands keep
going
higher to the point where other functions will stop working for
people who
have say, only 300 MB of memory.

I'm not sure what's wrong, but I'm having a hard time believing that
your
problem is legacy. I too am running 1 GB of RAM with only 1400 AMD
processor. I am currently running 41 processes in the background,
legacy,
Outlook, dictating this message with Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and doing
multiplexing on two different monitors. I'm not having any problems
with
crashes due to the way legacy is handling the memory. I would think
that
with over 700 MB of memory legacy was causing the crashes that you're
having, then just about everybody's computer would be crashing. You
might
want to check for conflicts, and or run a system diagnostic. By the
way,
just to make sure that the potential problems report is not the
problem, I
ran a potential problems report while I'm doing all of this,-it still
working fine. I wish I could help you, but I really don't think your
problem is not with legacy.

I'm not sure if it is just me, but Legacy is quite a memory hog (and
I'm not
meaning that to be rude...just what I have experienced on my
computer). I
feel it takes a LOT of memory to run the program and this may be a
limiting
factor in people buying the program. When I hit Ctrl+Alt+Del, I
notice that
just sitting there doing nothing it takes a whopping 40 MB...but if I
run a
potential problem report, it takes 65 MB of my memory...and then in
crashes.
I have 752 MB of memory and very little running in the
background...but I
had this same probem with v5. I can do most everything but run potential
problems reports....and I still can't run those reports. After
climbing to
65 MB the program freezes and then I get a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death).
I have even tried running Legacy when Windows XP is in "safe mode"
but it
won't let me run potential problems reports when there is no printer
installed (safe mode does not load printer drivers).
