Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop, Wine 1.1.13 (upgraded from 1.0.1 to try to solve my problem). I have used used Guitar Pro very recently without a problem. After a PSU failure, I had to reinstall the OS and downloaded and installed software, including Wine. Guitar Pro appeared to install properly and its splash screen was normal. Immediately the full program ran, a fatal error stopped it. I have a screen shot of the error message which involves a code violation to do with the windows GDIplus.dll. The message is in French, which probably wouldn't be a problem for Alexandre Julliard, but I can't find a way to attach it. I have typed the message in text editor and will paste it now. The French accents are missing. Violation d'acces a l'addresse 39840950 dans le module gdiplus.dll'.Lecture de l'adresse 00000048 I got the same error with ver 1.0.1 Graham[/img][/list]
