Unable to start PDN

[Snowflake]

Hi,

Finally I reached the point when I thought I'd give PDN a spin... Well, out of luck

Can anybody give me a hint? Tenku!

huh your Features log only has PopulateFonts(), that the shortest I have seen the Features log. I am not sure on this but you may have a bad font file.

[Snowflake]

Sorry, I didn't empty the features log.

Akshully I'm only using default vista fonts so far and I have seen no sign of corrupt font, but I'll check - cheers for the tip

[Snowflake]

btw, before the next tip, running as administrator or not doesn't make a difference.

Have you looked at this topic yet ?

Number 5 or 6 may be the answer.

This is asuming you are still getting this error.

If 5 or 6 don't work, then have you tryed a uninstall and reinstall ?

Sorry if I can't be of anymore help then that.

Your tablet isn't plugged in.

[HITMAN-X-]

Your tablet isn't plugged in.

lol that sounds so simple. Now I want to know were it told you it was not plugged in.

[Rick Brewster]

I've seen this specific crash before.

[Snowflake]

Hehe, tablet not plugged in sounds easy, but unfortunately nope, not that. It is plugged in all the time (hmmm, I didn't try without it yet) and the proof - zbrush works

It seems, PDN will not be friends with me I only have the base vista fontset installed yet - no errors there, repaired the .NET packages, 1.1, 2.0 compact, 3.5 - no use. uninst, reinst - no use. I even took back the OC for a test (although the system is very stable OC-ed). Strange thing I had no issue with any other .NET application so far, and I try to keep my system clean anyways.

Tricky one, ha?

Thanks for the tips so far

[Snowflake]

Wow, touching the tablet input service was a great idea! For later, if anybody has this error:

Just stop the "TabletInputService" in services or the taskmanager....

Finally, PDN started for me!

Thanks for trying to help guys!
