After a few hours of operation of MyDMX today, the program seems to have gone haywire. I can no longer insert any fixtures. When I drag and drop, the fixture representation remains a light blue color, and doesn't 'drop' into the channels. I cannot insert using the specify first channel and patch button either. Running in USB mode.

I even reinstalled.

Is this a known issue? What could be the cause? What measures do you recommend to fix the issue?

DMH36,
I do not have any experience with MyDMX but, something that I have had success with in other software problems is to:
Uninstall the troublesome program,
Shut down the computer (Perform a hard boot),
Wait 90 seconds,
Restart the computer,
Reload the program from scratch.

I know current convention is to do a restart, and 90 seconds is not required but if I am getting head handed to me on a platter over and over, I go back to the old tried and true.

Good Luck

Mike
This issue just happened to me this past friday. The program wigged out!
I restarted the computer...didn't work...then I un-installed the program and then re-installed it and it still did not work. I then rebooted again and still nothing. Then I held the USB connector hard into the myDMX box as I started the program and then it worked!
So it maybe an issue with the USB slot in the box. I haven't used it since...but will try it again this weekend. That was the first time it has done that too me.
