I try to open Audacity and the outline of the control panel opens but it never loads. It doesn't matter how long I leave it, the hour glass never goes away.
I have uninstalled and re-installed several times and downloaded a fresh copy.
I installed it yesterday on my kids' computer and it worked fine. I can see theirs through the network but when I try to access it, it behaves the same.
I also ran a virus and adware scan and defragged with no change
I have shut down all open programs with the same results.
I am running XP pro, SP1; 2.4gb Celeron; 300gb hd
766mb ram.
I haven't noticed any problems with other programs.
Well, now that I think about it, I installed a new Maxtor 300gb HD about a month ago and certain things open very slow.
If I click on a Word or Excel document, it opens slowly. Also, I preview all my emails in Mailwasher and, if I click a link, it also takes a long time to open.
Not sure what else you may need to know. Or if any of this stuff is pertinent.
I am guessing that it's a conflict somewhere, but have no idea where to start.
Thank you for your help,
Larry
