This problem has occurred with me with all versions of OpenOffice since 1.1 That is 1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2 This problem did not occur with OpenOffice 1.0 - that runs just fine. The install runs normally, then the applications will not run - a soffice process is created, the windows task manager tells me it is not responding. The platform is an AMD K6-500, running Windows ME, DirectX 9.1, and Norton SystemWorks, with no internet connection. Disabling the Norton software has no effect. Starting soffice from the command line give no extra information.
Reassigning to Framework.
@ tonybutt: I can't reproduce on my WinME box. I've installed DirectX 9.0b and checked with Ooo 1.1.2 final. Please give a detailed description of your system: - hardware configuration - disk space, partitions, file system Please provide a link where I can get DirectX 9.1. I've found downloads for 9.0b only.
Not reproducible.
