WB5.5 causes system to reboot.

Published on December 11, 2006 By ToeJo In WindowBlinds

Everytime I load WB 5.49a[b].021 my system BSOD's on reboot with a problem in win32k.sys stop 0x0000008e

I've tried uninstalling and re-installing several times to no avail.

HP laptop
GeForce Go 7400 (with MS WDDM driver)
32 bit Vista RC2

Maybe I just need to get the RTM?

Thansk for the help

For now I would suggest upgrading to RTM.

solarlove: Please post your system information text from the "View my system information" section in the WB Config dialog.

You cannot post the system info dialog because you cannot boot the system with WB installed on it. If you boot the system in safe mode and then try to open WB, the system prompts you to reboot before opening WB. Choose "Reboot now" and the system won't due to the BSOD. Choose "I'll do it later" and the system simply will not load the WB program.

The computer reboots perfectly after removing WB from Stardock Central.
