Dennis no ideas, it is something that I believe we have all seen from
time to time without any sure solutions. Try a full clean install, including
replacing the *.BPL and *.DPL files? I seem to recall a similar behaviour being
solved by the complete replacement of the BPL and DPL files during an
reinstall. Just vaguely.

Subject: Re: [PEDA] 99SE crashing
hi all
i have 99SE on 3 different boxes, all pretty similar, all WIN2K
on one machine i am getting a pretty consistent & serious problem, but
not on the others
i have a part (PCB component) which is a pin 1 indicator
it is a triangle made of 6 or so tracks all on the top overlay
(there are no other 'normal' PCB primitives such as pads)
on this one box, quite consistently when i copy one of these to the
clipboard and paste it around on the SECOND (somethimes third) paste
operation i get the hour glass and protel has gone into la la land
i waited almost 30 mins for it to recover (i have seen it recover from
some 'crashes') but it would not
during the protel 'hour glass' crash i noted 100% CPU usage in taskman
after rebooting my board was pretty scrambled and of course all unsaved
work was lost
so not to let this go i repeated the operation, this after a fresh boot,
and bang, crashed again exactly as before on the second paste
rebooted again and decided not to paste that thing around anymore :)
then i grabbed a mounting hole (component) and pasted it and on the
first paste i was crashed again
went to my other boxes and could not reproduce the problem with the same
board, same component and same operations
any ideas ?
