I think I remember having had the same kind of problem - after installing QT. I reinstalled windows, for several other reasons - Director and QT now run fine side by side. But, I think I got them both working before reinstalling Windows, just by running regclean a couple of times - I am not sure though, but it's worth a try. I've no idea why it worked! good luck - ----- Original Message ----- From: "LePhuronn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Lingo-L Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, June 24, 2001 6:41 PM Subject: <lingo-l> Fatal Error on Director start (OT) > Dear All > > Forgive the off-topic nature of this question but as experienced Lingo > developers we should know a fair amount about Director's technical side as > well. > > Basically I've run into a MAJOR problem.
