Rain Meter Crashes

Post by FishofSword »

Hey I found a post just like this but it was never resolved. So I have rainmeter downloaded along with Dark Pearl VS 1.1. Both are from Deviant Art. Now my problem is that at random times my entire computer just freezes. I can't do anything about it except to run a hard shutdown and restart it. So I ran some little tests and I know this:

1. Rainmeter doesn't crash if there are no plugins open, just rainmeter by itself
2. Yes this is a Rainmeter problem as it only started happening after I downloaded it and while Rainmeter is running
3.When it freezes, not even my Fn controls work for keyboard brightness and such
4.I have an orb changer, but it runs fine by itself, so I don't think that's the problem
5. Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
6.i7 intel with 4 gigs of RAM (im pretty sure about the RAM thing, but not positive)

Any help is welcome :thumbup:

ps I have attached a picture of the plugins I normally have open
pss This happened right away. There wasn't really a long enough period of solid working.

I'm not having a problem similar to yours, but I'm wondering how you got everything for this installed. I have an almost exact same setup as yours.

When I run the auto setup.exe, nothing happens. Any suggestions? How did you get everything displaying properly?
