It would work in browser mode, but when I would click on "Development" it would end up in a race condition, an endless (I guess, I only let it go for 36 hours) loop hogging all CPU time. Today I got pissed at all the crap Windows collects along the way (and I hardly use the Windows side of this laptop) and started unintalling all the versions of Java and Java updates that had piled up. I tried Lightroom right before I did the uninstalls ... and the problem was still there. After uninstalling anything and everything that looked like Java, Lightroom worked just fine again. It's been a nuisance more than anything because my real Lightroom installation is on my desktop and I just use the laptop for editing while on the go (and not very successfully because I am not happy with the screen's lack of calibration). Anyway, I no longer have that beef against Lightroom. Daniel
