CCS 4.4.2 produces blue screen

Hello,

suddenly CCS brings a bluescreen and a machine reset at startup. For many month all works crrectly and no changes at the system are done. Only CCS makes Problems, all the other stuff works without problems (Office, CAD, Grafik, Videocut). Its a business PC and not a buggy machine.

The other eclipse based IDE, LPC Expresso, Code Red makes no problems), System is Windows 7 32Bit.

A quick history:

(1) CCS 4.1.1.00014  suddenly brings a blue screen

(2) Uninstall und Install of CCS 4.2.2.00033

(3) Same Problem

(4) starting \ccsv4\eclipse\startup.jar  brings up CCS

(5) New Workspace and Projekts make ist possible to compile correctly

(6) starting the normal way brings a bluescreen

(7) starting \ccsv4\eclipse\startup.jar  now doesent work anymore (install, uninstall, now way)

 

For me it looks like a regestry, workspace, eclipseproblem ?! The PC works 100% stable without any problems (Dell Precission Series)

Any Ideas ? I spent many hours to find the Problem  :-(

Best regards

Martin

    Hello,

    a few hours later ....  

    The problem for the blue screen is the Java Runtime shipped with Code Composer Studio.

    If I remove \ccsv4\exclipse\jre all works fine and no bluescreens appear anymore.

    Maybe are options for the JRE in the registry wich make the bluescreens, because installation doesn't solve the Problem  ?!

    For the moment is it possible to do my work, but It is very disappointing for me to modify CCS in that way.

    Any ideas what's the problem behind ???

     

    Best regards

    Martin

    Martin,

    Indeed it seems a somewhat radical solution, as deleting the JRE that comes with CCS makes it run with another version of JRE that is installed in your system and included in the System PATH.

    Although the JRE1.5 supplied with Eclipse 3.2 is very stable, looking around on the internet I found that some versions of JRE can cause BSODs with certain graphics cards or multiple monitors.

    Considering your description and the solution you found, it seems to me there is an incompatibility between the JRE included in CCS and your PC. The most probable condition for CCS to cause such catastrophic issue would be when it was trying to access one of the low-level device drivers - on all the other conditions CCS is mostly running Java native code on top of the JRE itself.

    Unfortunately it is very difficult to pinpoint the exact cause for this issue as a BSOD leaves very little trace behind apart from a memory dump - the JRE itself is not able to create a log file.

    Regards,
