Summary0000674: Windows 7 hangs when FreeCad is started
DescriptionI downloaded and installed FreeCAD_0.12.5284_x86_setup.msi on a 64bit version of Windows 7 running on an HP Elitebook 8540w.
I have not been able to start the FreeCad application even once as it causes the entire operating to hang on startup.
The main windows opens up and a progress bar at the bottom moves up to 50% at which point everything stops and the OS hangs.
A reboot is required to recover.

I have previously installed this same version on a 64bit version of Windows 7 running on my home PC with no problems.
TagsNo tags attached.

Just to add, the HP has service pack 1 installed, and has 8GB of RAM.

Most likely a graphic driver bug on your side since the 0.12 runs just fine
on thousand of computers...

Degrade to Minor because it's apparently not a FreeCAD problem but a hardware issue.
