Crashes on start-up

from Stardock Forums
I have Vista Ultimate 64 bits. When I log in after booting, I immediately get a message saying Multiplicy has stopped working. I can still control the mouse on my other PC, but the clipboard isn't being shared and the icon in the notification area is gone.

Do you have UAC running? Tried turning it off?

A number of people have reported this with Vista 64 (using the Trial) as the primary. I have the same issue with UAC turned off.
Is there any confirmation that MP Pro indeed works using Vista64 as primary? What about running MP in VPC with XP? (Enough acronyms for ya? :) )

I'm tempted to take the plunge, but curious if anyone has already tested this with success.

Regards,

I run Multiplicity Pro on a Vista 64 primary, with two Vista 32 secondaries (one of which also occasionally serves as a primary). It works fine on all of them, although I have noticed that it sometimes has to be forcibly restarted on the primary if I want to change the layout -- otherwise it keeps the old one until I do.

Thanks Cypren.

I took the plunge, bought Pro, and indeed it works without issue so far on Vista64 as the primary, even after the reboot test. :HOT:

Such a great app, I'm glad to be able to use it with this OS setup.

Glad things are working out for you. On my desk I have 3 testers and I tried everything possible I could think of between a 32 bit vista, a 64 bit vista, and 32 XP. I think you are safe :)

Thanks Seabass. It seems to be the Trial that stops working in Vista64, after any type of reboot. In another thread, someone mentioned that maybe it's the Trial screen that pops up right away, or something related. Regardless, the problem is not present in the Pro version (for any future readers).
