Or under "performance and maintenance." The Application or System section will have reports that provide more detail about what exactly hung and possibly why. You can also try http://www.systinternals.com (which will re-direct to a Microsoft page) and under the section for processes get procexp.exe and run it before trying to compile. It will show you exactly what processes are running, what they are doing, and possibly explain what the issue is. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=166703#m166929 Need assistance?
