Can't start holdem manager...unhandled exception

[lickyfeet]

Hi. I recently got a new computer with windows 7.

I had this problem yesterday...."unhandled exception....." and ends by saying scanner.form.1 initiated it. If I continue it doesn't work. Nothing ever opens.

I restarted it yesterday and it worked. I was just playing and closed holdem manager and even when I restart the computer I cannot get it to work right now.

Thank you.

Please update to the latest beta - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe

For W7 and Vista you must set \holdem manager\dbcontrolpanel.exe, holdemmanager.exe and hmhud.exe are started as administrator. Run the windows explorer and navigate to your Holdemmanager installation directory. Right click the executables and select "Run as admin" from the compatibility tab. If you have Vista and the checkboxes are greyed out and you can't select it, please turn UAC on, reboot, and then set the files to run as administrator.

Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent or uninstall it temporarily - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171

Make sure your video card drivers and windows auto updates are fully updated. Make sure you have Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (or later for w7) installed.
