    MC 2.8.3 Crash Upon Launch of Capture Tool

    Do you guys have any idea what might cause Media Composer to crash immediately upon launch of the Capture Tool?  I've tried with existing project and with a new project. 

    Media Composer Adrenaline HD v3.0.5, 8-core 2.8 MacPro (early 2008), 4GB RAM, OS v10.5.5, QT v7.5.5, ATTO UL5D, Medea 1.6TB dual U320 RAID, G-Drive 250GB... [view my complete system specs]

    Does it crash with nothing attached to the CPU and no media online?

    The media is offline because it is a project that came from another system.

    Should I disconnect the drives?

    I would. Disconnect everything. If  the system launches, then  you can focus  your troubleshooting as you add hardware back.

    New user settings seems to have resolved whatever was bugging it out.

    Thanks for the quick reply!
