Do you mind a bit of curiousity from a new user? 1. On my old win laptop qgis (standalone install 1.5.0, on vista) handles all the vector data I can throw at it fine. If I point it at an ecw, qgis just straight crashes. A windows dialog box appear saying "qgis.exe has stopped working". Most of my rasters are ecw. Is this what yours did or is this a different problem? (I'm currently suspecting the laptop is a bit underpowered for the job). 1a. Actually the link to GDAL ticket 2320 speaks of qgis 1.5.3 - but I don't know where that is. Maybe that would help! 2. With regards to the wiki entry, the link now points to SDK 4.1, but states that the problem is unlikely to be fixed by 3.3. Could this be part of the problem? 3. With your solution, are the ECW and the quantum project back on windows 7 at the end, or just the project? -ramon. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
