Hi everyone. I've been having this problem for months. Suddenly one day when i tried to open wabbitemu up i wait for a long time and nothing happens. I sometimes am able to see the deselection of the windows explorer window for a split second like the focus window has changed. It also however used to run under administrator but was very unstable and crashed when i tried to open an axe file. I have the latest version from Aug 16. I don't know what's happening.

YAY!!
I'm not the only one!!!

I've had exactly the same problem for many weeks.
But two days ago I was able to fix it!

You must de-install (delete) wabbitemu, install it again and create a new rom-image for your TI!
That's all you need to do!

It has worked the third time I tried this!
So don't give up if it won't work!!
Try it again if it's not working!!

im not sure if i get it. even after deleting it and trying it in another folder with no roms at all the same thing happens.
also does java have anything to do with it?

Wabbit is C++ iirc, so no, it shouldn't. I haven't had any problems with it opening, though. I would suggest saying something in its discussion page, that way Buckeye can help you there and others who have this problem in the future can learn from it (if Buckeye doesn't fix it)

Is there version you have different from the one on the website? If so, try the new version and see if that fixes it.

A suggestion -- did you make Wabbitemu create a ROM image, or are you using one copied/some_other_verb from your physical calculator?

I've generally found that getting the ROM directly from the calculator is much more bug-free.

I think Buckeye said he updated it one or two weeks ago. But I created a ROM from rom8x using the upgrade OS file and I haven't had any problems with it.

Just clarifying. You had a working wabbitemu and rom and then upgraded and now it won't work? I've seen this sort problem before and I thought I knew the symptom of it but maybe not. Usually if wabbitemu doesnt start its due to some bad registry settings. First make sure no wabbitemu is running. Goto task manager and make sure no Wabbitemu.exe are running. If they are just kill the process.
Next open up regedit and goto HKCU\Software\Wabbitemu. Delete that key. If you're unsure how to do it let me know and I'll give more specific instructions. Then try starting up wabbitemu again. Also I don't reccomend starting wabbitemu as an administrator there should be really no need.

Also some questions in case that does not work.
a. What rom are you using and where did it come from? Perferablly model, OS version and boot code version
b. What operating system are you running on? 32 or 64 bit?
c. What version of wabbitemu are you running on? Check in about->help

Interesting, I've found this topic posted by FinaleTI with the same problem, im even using the same OS as him 2.43. http://ourl.ca/12542 I know its been months since you answered but ill try it now

yay, it worked! Now i can continue my axe programming where i left off months ago. I wonder why the registry can become like this...
(sorry for dp)

Heh dont tell me it took you that long to fix? Anyways it comes from a change I made to the settings but I can't remember what change that was. So when you upgrade it breaks. I've yet to figure out why

Jonius7 · « **Reply #12 on:** October 12, 2011, 01:55:37 am »

Well I kinda stopped everything for a while, i should've tried this ages ago and seen your post on 29 august

BuckeyeDude · « **Reply #13 on:** October 12, 2011, 01:56:43 am »

Haha fair enough. You might want to upgrade your wabbit as well

Another question: Wabbitemu no longer shows an 'Create/open ROM image' wizard. Now I can't use wabbit any more
