Strange problem YAM versions freezing under OS4.1FE

Post by JosDuchIt »

I do have 2 boopartitions, one OS4.1FE , one OS4.1Upd 6
Different YAM versions are available on my work: partitition.
Thoe versions used to be operational under both OS versions
Since today when launching any of them under OS4.1FE a freeze happens before YAM opens its normal window, the startup UI mentions YAM is busy building the "user interface".
I couldn'tt get hold of snoopy output to see what happens, Snoopy freezes too.
I noted however the last (repetitive FAIL) mentioning [exec] OpenResource("PicassoIV.resource")

Any suggestions how to tackle this?


Having searched on this site i do see a related problem
http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz ... oIV#p30284

Makes me think: i played around with the printer preferences today, & modified them to use the generic printer type with the printtofile.device.
I will check if that can be the cause
- having replaced the printtofile.device with the serial.device, the problem is unchanged

Still: it is the only thing i can think of that i changed

T Boeckel gave me the hint to rename the MUI drawer, which resets YAM as well as MUI's settings.
It worked. Thore is investigating why the problem happened.
The only other recent modification to my system was indeed the automatic install of the latest MUI version.
As other MUI applications (Odyssey etc) did not show any problem, the systematic freezes were indeed very mysterious.
