Program Crashs or hangs when typing
Hi
For long time now I have been using the below program for my web designing and it has worked perfectly up to and including Windows 7. I just got a Win8 laptop and now the program crashes or hangs whenever I start to type I get maybe 1 or 2 characters out and then it hangs.
I saw a similar post in the Win 7 forum but there was no final answer or solution and it was posted quite some time ago. The only response to the user was to check the Event Viewer. So I tried that and the below is what I got back but unsure what to do with this info.
Also bear in mind I am using a now no longer supported version of this program I even tried mailing them and they refuse to do any sort of update. So the software people won't do anything to try and resolve this issue so that is why I am hoping I can fix the issue. And the newer version stinks so refuse to use the newer version.
I love this program and that is why I have used it for nearly 15 years and would rather not lose it is possible!!!
What can be done to get this fixed so it won't crash when I type???
Thanks
Dave
