I get a popup box that says:
initdb.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Clicking a link gives this info:
AppName: initdb.exe AppVer: 8.2.0.6051 ModName: msvcrt.dll
ModVer: 7.0.2600.1106 Offset: 00033830
It wouldn't let me copy the rest of the info ;-(
cheers
