    Opera won't start

    My opear was working fine, except that whenever it used Java it crashed the whole system upon exit (PC just started new, so using opera and Java was the same as pushing the reset button ).

    Yesterday it happened again, only that I wasnt able to start opera again. It was displayed under processes in the task manager, but not as an application. It had a high CPU utilization, but the program just wouldnt start. I uninstalled java, tried again, same thing. uninstalled opera (7.01) and reinstalled 7.03 without jave, same thing. uninstalled again, deleted opera folder, reinstalled, same thing. unistalled, reinstalled opera with java, same thing.

    Anyony know of this problem? could it be because I was downloading a file when it crashed?

    Help please, I dont wanna use IE anymore (made that mistake long enough )

    It's happened to me a couple times, just end the'opera 7' process, even if the program is not running, and it should start normally

      have you tried uninstalling Opera and Java, then reinstalling?

      Haven't had any of the problems you describe, but I'm using 6.05 still (good enough for me).

            Should I send you an Opera 6.5 installer?

            Maybe that'll work until you get the problem sorted out. You can install two Opera versions parallel.

                There are so many DSL Flatrates now... money shouldn't be a reason. Social life should be!

                  Thats definetly true, and a good point. But I will still feel more comfortable with a dsl flatrate

                  It wasnt an option so far, because at the moment I live as an "Untermieter", and it seemed too much trouble for me to get a dsl flat.

                  when I move though, Ill try to get one as soon as possible

                    Its working again

                    For all who have the same problem: uninstalled it, did a search for all opera files, deleted them, deleted autosave.win, reinstalled
