Hi :) Answers will usually be at the bottom of the thread. i top-post now just because that is probably more familiar to you as it is to most people.
Win7 with 2Gb should be ok, especially if you don't have tons of other programs open at the same time. The 3.3.2 (or OOo's 3.3.0) 'should' be stable. There could be a number of causes; 1. Do you have both LibreOffice and OpenOffice installed at the same time? If so then try un-installing OpenOffice and then re-install LO using the installer you already have. Even without re-installing LO just un-installing OpenOffice can fix the problem. You can always return to OpenOffice as both are free to install. OpenOffice and LibreOffice use some identically named things which often causes problems if the OpenOffice QuickLauncher is used. There are probably other conflicts too. Uninstalling might possibly uninstall some things that LibreOffice needs although i've not heard of that happening so far. 2. Fragmentation or other maintenance issue in Windows generally. Are other apps sluggish or unpredictable and possibly crashing? It could be a good idea to do some back-ups and then some routine maintenance such as defrag. If fragmentation is really bad then Perfect Disk sometimes do a free-trial for 1 month and they tend to be a LOT better than MS's defrag tools. 3. Perhaps LibreOffice didn't download and install properly. I don't know if we have md5sum or similar way of checking that the download worked. The easiest and quickest check is to simply try to re-install the LibreOffice you already downloaded (see option 1 above). If the 2nd re-install doesn't work then it might be worth re-downloading to try again. Please let us know how this goes and keep us informed. Good luck and regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: Burai <bu...@pvzen.org> To: users@libreoffice.org Sent: Tue, 26 April, 2011 18:49:46 Subject: [libreoffice-users] crash within seconds of opening a doc. I'm lost, confused & perhaps stupid, but feel free to think what you will. I have been contentedly using Libreoffice and openoffice before that with few problems. Occasionally a doc would stall with a "Not Responding" message and then usually recover all by itself. But now, for about a month, no such luck. Libreoffice crashes, "unknown error" almost every time I open a doc. Same behavior with starting a new doc, same behavior with writer & calc. Same behavior with removing LO & installing OO. Same behavior in XP sp2 compatility. I would like to disable auto-update, but I don't see that option in Tools->Options in this version. And I don't see anyone else reporting this problem. Windows 7 starter, 2 GB ram, netbook with Intel Atom N550. LO 3.3.2 (or OO 3.3.0) Thanks for your patience, Burai -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/crash-within-seconds-of-opening-a-doc-tp2866616p2866616.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
