The first time I start AHP after turning on
the computer it seems to work fine. If I
close AHP software and try to restart it I
get the following Windows error
message. ”ACTIVE HOME PRO HAS ENCOUNTERED A
PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO CLOSE……” The only way
I can get the software to run is to re-boot
the computer. This problem did not exist
before the last software update.

[X10 Pro]

Jim: What version of Windows are you running?

[JimC]

Windows XP SP2

[X10 Pro]

Can you send the details of the error
message, including any module or memory
location information to ahpsupport@x10.com?

[JimC]

Version 3.175 seems to have taken care of
this problem. Thanks X10

WONT LOAD  NEED A NEW DOWNLOAD

[rich]

I'm getting the Run a DLL as an App has
encountered a problem and needs to close
error.

I first installed the 75 upgrade via the
normal web method. When that didn't work, I
tried this forum and found the link to the
installer stub...ahpupdt_175.exe...which I
then installed.

Things worked fine last night, but this
morning, I get only the above message.

System is running on an Asus P4C800 Deluxe
board, 1 gig (512 on each channel), HT
enabled, latest bios, ATI 9700 Pro video,
WinXP Pro, SP2, etc...

This is madness...

 X-10 -- Please provide assistance

The lastest upgrade has prevented AHP from
loading.   I have had some communication
from Steven, listed below, but he must be on
vacation, because I have received nothing
recently.  You help is needed, because I
cannot open AHP.
Steven:

I followed your instruction, but I did not
get any zips. I tried to use the earlier
ones that you sent and I got an error
message saving there were not any common
files.

Your assistance would be appreciated.

Download did not help.  It still blows-up
when I try to open the updated AHP program.

Just updated to v3.175 and it wiped out my
files for my house containing my modules,
macros and timers.

[louis]

Following my update to to 3.175 and
experiencing a software load lockup, as my
earlier message indicated, I also lost my
files with the AHP lighting commands.  I am
now at square one.  I forwarded the screen
images of my device manager to Steven as
requested, but have not received any
response.

I have encountered a very similar problem
with 3.175, the only way I can get it to
start is to open the folder where AHP is
installed and then active the starter
program. I sent Michael screen shots of the
error on Sunday but haven't heard anything
back as of yet. Other updates did not have
this problem. Running XP Pro sp2 on a P4
3.4 Ghz Abit duramax mobo.

Swbob:

This almost exactly describes my situation.
Were you able to recover your files?

[swbob]

Gerry: Before I ever update to a newer ver
of AHP I always copy my working file(s) to
the desktop then update.I have not lost my
data that way. I am still waiting for X-10
to answer my e-mails. I have since un-
installed the AHP program and re-installed
it , what I find interesting in un-
installing and re-installing is that the
newly installed AHP never ask me to
register my software so therefore the un-
install program AHP has does nothing to the
registry file of Windows so perhaps some of
AHP's problem lies in there update or
install routines. I have just about given
up on conditional macros for now and have
set all my modules to trigger by time both
on and off and so far I have had resonable
sucess..About one weeks worth until ver
3.175 that is....
