Sometimes when I go into full screen mode, a window pops up that says 'Scrivener.exe has stopped working". After trying to find a solution a new screen pops up that adds “A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.”

It happens more often if I have been writing in normal mode for awhile and switch over. I’m using Windows 7. If this helps I also have a 2.50 GHz processor with 4.00 memory.

Can you repeatedly produce this crash?

If so can you document the exact steps so I can try to reproduce the error?

Let me guess: You use 64bit Version.

I think it is the behaviour reported here:

Yes, I’m using 64-bit version.

Again, it doesn’t happen every time. This is like the ones mentioned in the other post. It’s a no scroll one.

I clicked on the full screen button on the program’s bar. I think it was more likely to stop working if I had Scrivener open for a long time. When I first tried to reproduce the problem, I kept opening and closing full screen through the full screen button and the escape key and I finally got it to freeze. In that case, I opened the program with in intent to catch the bug.
