[Ignore] (Dreaded December Date Bug): L4 Crashing on open

Alan Head

See this thread for more information on the Dec 31 date bug: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/8334.aspx

Loads a blank layout fine.  From there I can go into daily readings, and a Hebrew study (saved layout) on Psalm 103.  But crashes when I try to start normally or when I go into the home screen after starting blank.

This has only been happening in the last 24 hours.

This happens with our without internet access, and with or without overclocking.  Of course, nothing was overclocked when I installed, I haven't done any overclocking in the last day, I haven't updated Windows (or anything else), and no system configurations changes have occurred.

There was an update (~36MB) for Logos this morning, and I thought that installing it would help but it did not.

Specs:

Desktop | Windows Experience Index: 5.9 | Intel Core i7 920 @4.3GHz, 2.6GHz | 3 GB RAM | Asus Rampage II Extreme mb | 1x 19" widescreen monitor and 1x 15" monitor | EVGA 8800GTX+ 768MB GPU | 1x OCZ Vertex 30GB OS drive, 1x 74GB WD Raptor App drive, 1x Seagate Barracuda 1200.2 1TB data drive | Windows 7 Professional

Comments:  This may be the same bug as this guy (looked at his log and the exception looks similar): http://community.logos.com/forums/t/8334.aspx

Per Bradley Grainger, Logos:-

This crash happens on 31 December (local time) if you have no active Bible Reading Plan.

As a workaround, hold down the CTRL key at startup, and check "Use blank layout" on the Sign In screen (as pictured at http://www.logos.com/support/article/2135).

It will resolve itself tomorrow (and we will fix the problem in SR-2, although that will probably be too late...).
