I'm on Vista 32bit, Intel C2D 2.13, 4gb ram, NVidia 450gts 1gb

EDIT: It seems it has to do with the batch files I run before and after GameEx runs, to swap primary displays, so GameEx shows on the HDTV. I tried removing those 2 lines and it loaded up fine on my main monitor.

EDIT2: Just tried some more stuff. I removed the "Run before" and "Run after" lines on the Setup Wizard. Then proceded to manually swap primary displays on windows display properties. GameEx loaded fine. Then I proceded to manually run the .bat files to swap primary displays before launching GameEx, and GameEx also loaded fine. So I really think it's got something to do with the "Run before" and "Run after" lines for some wicked reason.

EDIT3: Switched to Windowed mode, and GameEx loaded fine even when using the .bat files to swap primary displays on the "Run Before" and Run After" lines on the Setup Wizard.

EDIT4: Just tried to use GameEx's "Run on Secondary Display" option without using the .bat files, and even though I didn't get the "Stopped Responding" message, it did hang in the GameEx loading screen, and exited after a while. Log was exactly like the one I pasted above.

LAST EDIT: Rebooted and problem persisted. Last thing I tried was loading GameEx with the .bat files in place, it crashed. When it crashes, it doesn't run the "Run after" .bat file so my HDTV is kept as primary. I tried running GameEx again without swaping it back and it loaded fine even with the "Run Before" batch file in place.

Hopefully all the above info is enough to find what is troubling my very beautiful GameEx setup. :D

TRULY LAST EDIT: I think I just found a workaround. It just seems as if GameEx is loading up so fast, that the display is not ready after swapping. I added a delay on the batch file after swapping primary display, and so far, it seems to be working great. :D

Wow, handbrake adjustment just in time! Awesome!! Thanks Tom!

Thanks as usually Tom.

I must say though I was holding my breath for some big new wow feature you were saving up for the whole number release.

But I don't think you have been holding much back :)
