This is the first time that I had a major ( at lest to me) problem with my machine after one and a half years of use. it all started when after a couple of months of no use my Daughter wanted me to cut something for her, to make a long story short, during the cut I think I had a power surge because I have every thing plugged into a surge protector which flipped off and shut everything off, the power every where else in my garage was fine. So i figured I had to re calibrate but when i tried to open GC it would open for about 2 seconds and then close by itself. WHY?
just so you know Iām still using V 1.10
It seems strange that the error would appear right after a power surge. Do you see the same behavior if the machine is not plugged in?
@madgrizzle is right, the best thing to do is to launch Ground Control from the command line so we can see what the error message is. If you have any trouble doing that shoot me a private message with your email and Iāll email you a version which will pause automatically so we can read the error message.
If you hit the windows key (the one in lower left of keyboard with the āflagā) and then type cmd and hit enter, it should start a command prompt. You then need to change the directory to wherever you have groundcontrol.exe saved. Where do you have it saved?
It could very well be a driver issue related to an update. I have a laptop that 50% of the times the opengl driver works, 50% time it doesnāt and I have to reboot.
under Target I copied it and past it and still says cant find program
i tried it on my computer inside and it worked put this computer is not connected to anything
Kinda hard to help. Is there someone else with you that might be able to find the program? Either that or send a message to @bar with email and heāll send you a special version.
