Vault Client 2.0.0.4 exception when loading

Post by ChrisHogg » Tue Jul 13, 2004 8:21 am

Hi

I have just installed Vault client 2.0.4 from 2.0.0 and the client is popping up an exception to do with tab controls several time while loading.

I run VS.net 2003 on XP

The debug message is included below


Cheers Chris

Is Windows configured to use multiple displays? For some reason, this causes the .NET framework to throw these exceptions some times. Disabling the splash screen (for some weird reason) fixes it. See this KB article for instructions.

If this doesn't work, try deleting the FormMain saved window sizes registry key, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SourceGear\Vault\Client\Settings\FormMain.

Thanks Shaw - yep it is a dual monitor config here.

That puts my mind at rest, seems like lots of things go wrong on multimonitor.

Cheers

Chris :D
