Hello, I've bought my copy of Delphi 2007 now and run it on my Vista system :).

Though the interface is working like a charm, I can in no way manage projects, I can't open anything that uses a project, that includes almost everything.

I can open .pas and .dfm files, look at them and edit, but I can not compile due to I can't deal with projects in any way.

And the error message is exatly the same no matter what type of project I start or open.

"Access violation at address 00000000. Read of address 00000000."

Always that error message, when I create a new project, opening an old project I made with Delphi 2005.

I've repaired, reinstalled, tried a downloaded ISO CD and none of those attempts solved my issue. So I thought to ask you guys :).



(ps. Sorry for not thanking to the replier in my last created thread, I was a bit busy)
 
I would try running Vista while logged in as administrator or as a user with administrative privileges.
See if disabling Vista UAC control has any effect.

I think you might be running without proper privileges/security permissions.

Good Luck.

Hmmm. I'm admin and always allow Delphi 2007 to run with admin privileges.

I noticed one thing just recently.

When I don't run it with admin privilege. In messages section, it is one line that says (only one)

"Setup.exe(1): Den begärda åtgärden kräver en privilegiehöjning"

It's in Swedish :(, but it says something like:

"The asked action requires additional privilege".

But this doesn't seem to really be related to the bug that I cannot manage project at all, since I can't do it no matter how I start the Delphi application :(.

Maybe I should try install with UAC disabled, but how do I disable it :?.

Thanks anyway :)
