Scratch

HighfieldAdmin · 2010-04-07 09:47:23

I work at a high school where the ICT department utilise Scratch as a teaching resource. One of the ICT teachers gets a Fatal VM error when opening Scratch (dump file attached at the bottom). I have narrowed it down to a local profile problem as I will delete his profile from C:\Documents and Settings\, he will log on and Scratch will load up and work for a few days then he will get the same error again.
I have tried to create a new user account for him and the program will work fine for a few days then give the same VM error on his new user account. I find this strange how it is just isolated to his account/profile. The ICT teachers use a mandatory profile so if it affects his account it should affect the other ICT teachers accounts but it doesn't!
Uninstalling and reinstalling the program does not fix the problem.
I am stuck as to what to do now. Please help dev. team.

sorry, i'm a mac person. you could ask paddle2see,(but i'm not sure if he's mac or windows) or maybe j0j2, she's windows. they're both good at this kind of stuff. i'll ask them to check it out.

Is this still a problem? I see that it's a month old...is it fixed and if so, what was the fix?
