I'm new to Processing and programming and I'm trying to run Processing-1.0.5 on
Win XP SP3, but with no success. After clicking the processing icon I get the welcome
screen for a couple of seconds then it closes and nothing. I read in the Discourse
section and in the Bug Reports but found no solution to my problem.

On another computer with almost the same set of software I have no problems.
If this is important my XP account username is "pmg20_a.katanski".

This is the info from the log file.

CmdLine: C:\processing-1.0.5\processing.exe --l4j-debug

Thank you in advance!

can you try with a user account that only contains (ascii) alphabet letters?

Made a new account with user name "ANDREY" but still nothing happens. No
Processing.

The log is absolutely the same:

Maybe(definitely) there's something I'm doing wrong...

Odd, I'm not sure what else to try. Have you attempted on other machines?
You're using the version that includes Java, correct? Is this a US English
version of Windows or another language?

Yes, Processing works on other machines with similar software/OS.
I'm trying the JAVA version.
I'm not sure that I'm using the US English version of Windows but it's definitely
English:)

I guess the problem comes from some software or drivers installed on this particular
machine, but since I don't know which exactly, I'm going to have to reinstall OS.

The funny thing is that a few days ago I installed Processing Mobile and it works!
Don't know how this information may be useful to you, but i thought I should
mention it. Anyway, I'll be reinstalling OS soon(or later).

Thanks for the support and keep up the good work!

sorry to not be of more help... it's difficult to track these things down
when i don't have a machine in front of me that's causing the problem.
