GF hangs in itunes windows xp sp2

Post by thecooler »

Hi,

I have just installed GForce 3.5.4 on itunes 6, OS Windows xp sp2, intel pentium M 1.6GHZ 496MB of RAM.

I have tried itunes own visualizer which works ok, but when I switch on GForce no visuals load up and itunes stops responding. It continues to play the music that is playing but I cannot use itunes and have to stop the programme by rebooting my laptop.

When I turn GForce on norton internet security queries me to allow access to the internet but before I can do that itunes has stopped responding. I have already allowed internet access by itunes manualy.

I am also running volume logic and mini lyrics.

Any help appreciated otherwise I think I will have to abonden GForce.

Cheers

Have you tried G-Force 3.5.5? Do you still have any issues? Have you tried disabling volume logic and mini lyrics (any anything else in iTunes, for that matter) and running G-Force?

I had a similar problem. I discovered that if I left G-Force running full-screen in iTunes (running in Windows XP Pro SP2), iTunes would crash after anything from between 10mins to 30mins. I now use the standalone and to be honest - I prefer it.

I have updated to the latest version of G-Force, but the same thing happens.

The standalone is fantastic.

(and my son [i]still[/i] sits down watching it, going "amazing" and "I really like that one" - cheers Andy!)

Are you on the GF beta list? If not, plz send me an email and I'll add ya b/c I have a 3.5.6 beta coming out soon that may fix this and I have no other way of knowing.

Thanks,
Andy

Hi

You can contact me on pk.player at hotmail.com. I tried to send a pm, but the function appears to be disabled.

Update:

I recently installed the latest version of iTunes for Windows (6.0.5.20), and have had G-Force running in Full Screen Mode quite happily for the last 45mins. Previously, iTunes would crash after a maximum time of 30 minutes.

Looks like it is no longer a problem
