Ben,
If you can open the program but not open a run, try the following which is
lifted from an e-mail from Byron:
If you go to Setup|Program Options|Data
you'll find two checkboxes at the bottom of the screen,
dealing with adjusted or unadjusted values. The first is
"Display Raw Unadjusted Data". This checkbox by default is
CHECKED.
There's very little reason to uncheck this checkbox, and I
haven't done it in, well, quite some time, since about
version 2.50 apparently. It turns out, that with that
checkbox unchecked, we certain adjustments can create a
divide by zero error which is then displayed as "invalid
floating point operation" by Windows, causing a program
crash and lots of other unpleasantries.
The fix, for now, is extremely simple: Be sure that Display
Raw Unadjusted Data is CHECKED. You can have it's
companion, the checkbox marked "Display Raw Unadjusted
Ratings" either checked or unchecked as you wish. This is a
feature I use often, and just wrote about in NAP regarding
Todd Green, for instance. But the other one, the one about
DATA, should always be checked.
When I had a floating point error problem, which the above solved, it
usually cycled similar to what you seem to be describing. However, changing
the setting MAY not correct runs which have been saved with the box
unchecked (I don't remember for sure).
