I'm having the same problem as another user who was running a Dutch version of XP was having. That is, the GUI won't run. It starts to. I even see it for a second among the processes in task manager, but then, nada. It dies with no error message or anything. For the last person, you solved it by suggesting a different version of the Dutch module.

but...I'm running the English version of Windows XP...

I did not load the drivers for the Sony PRS500 when prompted since: A) I have a 505 and B) I really wanted it for lit to lrf conversion anyway and wanted to try out that feature before committing to using for all functions.

Other than that it was a straight install on Windows XP that seemed perfectly normal...

Any ideas?
