Error "We wish etc." => another config

No reason that configuration won't work. Try uninstalling and reinstalling and see if that helps.

Hey uqbarc.

We've seen a bunch of these cropping up every once in a while. So far it looks like the common denominator is running XP. Could you please print out the PhotosynthActiveX.log?

You can find it at:

%tmp%\PhotosynthActivex.log

Dear Joshua,

Here is the last entries of the PhotosynthActivex.log (I cut it as I tried several times to run Photosynth, but all entries do seem to be identical).

Regards.

And I just tried to uninstall and install the program again, but it is still not working.

The new PhotosynthActiveX.log is :

Can you please install the current video driver? According to ATI's website, it can be found at http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_cat...

Thanks!

Are you trying to run Photosynth spanning both your screens? Although that should work, you should also try running it just on one screen or another.

Dan,

I already intalled the most current driver before installing Photosynth. My current driver is still the most recent to date.

About the two screen, I disabled my second screen and tried Photosynth again in that configuration, but it is still not working, so I guess the problem is not here either.

Interstingly though, I tried photosynth on a much older computer I have, with a Radeon 9200 videocard with 128 Mb, only 256 Mb of Ram, and a Celeron at 2.20MHz, and it worked perfectly.
