Freestyler / Windows Error: Calling API Failure

Post by .rrr. »

Hey all you freestyler pros.

I just installed fs on a latitude d600. It works almost fine. But the thing is that after a period of time no dmx control is possible. Some of the the grafical elements of fs also disappear (like the "fade" text during creating a cue). And then fs crashes with some Error message like "Error calling API" or something like that.

Does anyone have am idea?

I alreaday have installed the current driver for graphics. The grafical errors are then seen also under Windows. For example I have some graficals bugs at the log of screen.

After restarting the maschine, everything works fine again.

Thanks for responding...

Sounds as a hardware or driver problem, not a specific FreeStyler problem.

So maybe try out certain factory test tools and or benchmark tools to see what happens with that?
