Object Desktop Conficts with Autodesk Revit 2008 - BSOD

Wednesday, November 7, 2007 by revolver1978 | Discussion: Object Desktop

Hopefully someone out there has had a similar experience and can help me out.

I have the full suite, and when I have any visual style other than XP or Classic defaults running, when I load Revit Building 2008 I get a Blue Screen of Death and a memory dump. I'm running XP home, with all the current updates.

I tried a couple of visual styles - GT3 and some simpler ones - and only when I have a custon visual style does Revit end up in a BSOD. Under the microsfot styles it's fine.

Anybody have any ideas?

Update:
I tried Revit with Windows FX - no problems.
Tired with Icon packager - no problems.
It's definitely Windowblinds. Something in the registry maybe?

Add the program to the exclusion list. I have been excluding AutoCad since version 2006.

Windowblinds Configuration > Settings > Change the look of an app > Add per application setting

Thanks - I should have thought of that. I'll give it a try tonight and see if it works!
