[v6 General Discussion] Freezing, becoming unusable.

While using EW6 the program freezes and becomes unresponsive, requiring the use of the task manager to close it. The mouse will click around in the program window but nothing works. Even the close button and the menus become unusable. Only way to continue using is to close the program using the task manager and restart.

intel i7 3.2 ghz
8gb Ram
1TB HD
EW 6.1.8

We bought this new computer to handle EW6 please advise as to how to fix this problem. Reverting back to 2009 is not an option because it was never on this new computer or we would go back until EW6 was finished.

Yeah, this is happening to me also, with a highend laptop.

Any responses?
I am also having the freezing issues. Software becomes unresponsive and can only ctrl,alt, delete to kill software. We are using an i5, 8GB of memory and ATI Radeon 5700 HD graphics card.
Probably not monitor; more likely graphics driver. Turning off a monitor is not normally a fatal condition. I turn my monitor (TV) off every day and my PC continues operating normally. Are there any power settings set in Windows? For EW6 desktop computer I would suggest maximum performance and no power savings.
OK new question. It crashed again while importing a song from song select. This time the worship leader turned off the monitor and the task manager restarted EW 6.
Could it be something wrong with the monitor? New computer, monitor is a 24 in Samsung that is about 2 years old.
Perhaps you should create another profile with fresh database. Unfortunately there are no built-in database repair tools like EW2009 had for its databases.
It has not crashed while going live and actually projecting and image. So would that be the fault of the video card? I sent a message about the driver update to one of the worship leaders.

It crashed again this morning, Sunday, ten minutes before we were going to go live. It is frustrating to say the least.

After we got the computer online I downloaded and exceeding great number of updates. Any help is appreciated, so far it seems to be an equal opportunity crashing and not related to any one action. It seems that half of the times it has crashed we were either importing songs, adding songs to a schedule or deleting a song from a schedule.
any update on this issue as I have it too on a win8.1 16GB 1TB SSD NVidia 750Ti
have to kill via task manager - which is REALLY old school
Also, if PowerPoint is up and running (we use two video monitors) along with EW6, EVERYTHING freezes, requiring Task Manager to close all.
What version NVIDIA driver?

Alas it froze again when my worship leader was importing a song from song select. So that is at least six freeze ups, with varying causes. At least 2 trying to import songs.
It has not crashed or seemed slow in loading song slides.

OK one of our younger men got it registered. But it crashed again today trying to bring another song in from Song Select. No mouse action and no keyboard function, could not even control alt delete. It is the newest build 6.1 9. would like to get it to work now as everything else is ready.

Thanks
Also if you are using EasyWorship offline and you are on a trial license or a payment plan the software will say it is not licensed.
Also make sure you are using EasyWorship 6.1.9.
If not, go to www.easyworship.com/support download the installer to a flash drive, take it to the computer and install it.
It sounds like windows didn't shut down if it resumed.
Can you post system specs?
The license file is loaded via Help -> Register Products... Select Register using file and use EW website id and password to complete registration.

Didn't get through one song froze up nothing I did could get us out of it. I had to turn off the computer and reboot. It resumed windows and I closed out EW 6. I downloaded an update today. We purchased and received a Disk with EW 6, I loaded it into the computer before we had internet. I downloaded the license key and put it on a flash drive. When I dragged the file to Easy worship it crashed. Broad green vertical lines non responsive had to restart in safe mode. When I start up now and sign in it recognizes but still says it is an unregistered program. Help
Our system has the same problem, same Revision.
Our video card is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 645.
i5-4570 3.2Ghz
16 GB Ram
64 Bit
1 TB HD.

Doesn't give a warning, I find out when I click to change a scripture/song, and it stops responding.

Please Help.
