    Help!

    I'm doing this really important program for a client, I go into Microsoft Visual Basic Express Edition, and it just goes into not responding.

    It's really important that I can use this.

    Could it be something to do with RMClock???

    Many thanks!

    Apparently nothing to do with RM Clock because I've just ended the process and nothing happens!

    Please help! My life depends upon it! Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply but no. I installed visual studio about a year ago and I've never had any problems until this week. I open the program (compiler program that is - not one of mine) and it just like freezes.

    Any suggestions?

    Many thanks. It is really important to me that I get it sorted!

    I've been using the program for a year with no issues.

    Thanks for the reply but I've managed to fix it now. For anyone reading this post in the future it just didn't like the fact that there were 72 other processes going on at the same time. I closed some of the unessential ones like Pamela for Skype e.t.c. and it worked fine.

    Thanks again.

    Ugh. Get rid of VB as soon as you can. It teaches HORRIBLE programming habits.

    Sorry to go OT but oh man, your website, mattireland, made me laugh:

    "If you want, do email me about my builds and if you want advice but DO NOT junk me (as you may have guessed I'm quite good with computers so I can track where junk comes from and format you hard disk for you courtesy of yours truly)"
