marmaduke · Feb 10, 2010

all versions 6 won't work on my xp sp3.Clean uninst all old versions.
They install but won't start without errors :?

Could you try a nightly 6.0 build, there should be a fix for this.

Try a 6.2 branch - 6.2 removed the dependency on CryptGenRandom (and its associated family of functions) so you shouldn't run into this problem any more. This won't be backported to v6.0 though, so you'll have to keep using nightly builds (or wait until 6.2 is out)
