Objectdock 1.0 eats up 100% of my CPU on a Win2k SP4 PC when I start apps
Friday, April 9, 2004 by ethsza | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Hi,
I wonder if this is a known bug, or maybe a confiuration issue.
Time to time if I start an application from the start menu or from windows explorer or any other application, ObjectDock starts to consume 100% of my CPU. Only thing I can do is to end the OD process from the task manager.
The PC is a HP/compaq NC 8000, running win2k SP4, 1,5 GHz Mobile Pentium with 512 MB RAM.
Object Dock version is 1.0 (and some more zeros) which I cant upgrade from stardock central, because when I click update, it stops at 60%, with the logfile saying that the size of LaST (Cobalt) Lock & Gear.png
is incorrect.
After starting ObjectDock again, things go fine for a while.
Could you help me?
cheers

here's an update on the cpu utilization problem I have working with support on. The problem has to do with virtual desktop managers and it happens after switching virtual desktop screens several times. Support has confirmed this and is working on the issue. I am currently using Altdesk v1.5.5 and have not at this point tried a different virtual desktop manager although I know several others are out there. I just updated objectdock plus v1.02e(rc).002 today so we'll see how it goes.

I'm not running any virtual desktop managers. (I have opened this topic, so this fact might have some relevance here. )
