Crashes when I open the mixer or video player

Cubase

Hi

Running Cubase 7 on a Windows Vista 32 bit system.

I was working on a small project and then suddenly Cubase (7.0.1) “disappeared”. I use that word, because it didn’t shut down or crash. It just disappeared in a split second and my desktop showed up. When I double click the C7 icon it starts up as normal and everything seems fine (C7 doesn’t remember my “recently opened” files though). I can load the project (and other older projects as well) work, edit and play them. But when I hit F3 to open the mixer window Cubase dissappears again as described. The same thing happens when I try to open the video player (F8).

I updated to 7.0.2 but that didn’t work. I haven’t installed anything new on my machine for a month or so and it usually works like a charm. It not connected to the Internet. Any ideas as to what this is all about?

I just found out, that I can open the project I created in Cubase 7 with Cubase 6.0.3 which I have installed on the same laptop. No problems opening and closing the mixer or viedo player there. Only problem is, that I cannot use the Curve EQ since this is part of C7.

Now I’ll try to open the project in C7, export the tracks where I used the Curve EQ, and then do the rest of the project in C6. This is not the best solution, but at least I can get my project done in time with a little luck.

Still if anyone has an idea to a solution it would be much appreciated.
