[tt]I've had dreamweaver mx since it came out and I've never seen this come up upon closing the program.

I was done with the program and when I closed it, I got this screen below which just flashed/blinked about 5 times then locked my system.

I'm thinking is lack of memory but have never seen this before.... Anyone else?

My system must be acting up

Grey scale screen? Or am I missing something here?

[tt]Just trying to figure out what causes this screen to be display with exiting the program...

it could just have been a fault in a process. As much as i really do like microsoft and XP is just a super OS i must say it still messes up every now and then.

have you tried a reinstall? Or possibly this is a stretch it could have something to do with the cached files

[tt]I think if my sorry *&/>?%$# system that's acting up and needs an overhaul. But I'll try you're suggestion.

"....XP is just a super OS...."

poor copy of MacOSX on top of win2000 that's it ....IMHO
I ran on:
- win2000 on PII 333Mhz
- RAM 128 DIM
- HD 20 GB
- some old school video card I digged up from basement
with apps running
-PS 6, DWMX 6, IE 5.5, NN 4.7, Winamp, MS Access, IIS 5.....
never chrashed OS...just the obvious hardware lag of switching amongst the apps

look into getting the update of MX to 6.01 (I think)
good luck
