[QUOTE="gregweller, post: 2490637, member: 879"] I found out what the problem was. The funny thing is that I spent days looking for an answer, but it must have taken the magical powers of just posting here to find the the answer. It looks like the Windows look and feel setting is causing the problem. PCGen tries to use the WindowsXP look and feel as the default and there must be a problem there. I found a post in the Yahoo PCgen group (which wasn't in the Sourceforge Forum) that said to try and add this line to the options.ini file: pcgen.options.looknFeel=1 The problem was that the set up was crapping out before it even created an options.ini file. So I created a blank text file called options.ini saved it in the root PCGen directory, and added that line. Voila! It ran. I thought I'd just leave this thread open since I saw that a number of people had already viewed it, and maybe this will help someone else with the same problem. [/QUOTE]
