This has recently started on my desktop system (it doesnt happen on my laptop);
I open SF5(4.9/179) and it opens in a small scrunched window, with the dialog box for "Jump to symbol" open.. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that didnt fix it.. When I take the "My documents/Stockfinder5" folder and copy it to my laptop, sf5 runs fine, opens and closes just fine..
My desktop is a win7/64 bit, the laptop is win7/32bit;
One other item which I see as a diff between the laptop and desktop is that when I exit SF5 on the desktop I get a "File Exists, Overwrite?" dialog...
Any ideas?

Try dragging the bottom right corner of the small scrunched window. It sounds like it got resized for some reason.

Ken,
I drag it open every time. I've even tried saving... but the fact it opens small AND every time its got the "jump to symbol" dialog box open is what confounds me... Should I try a reinstall and this time go have at the registry for any left over SF keys?
Thanks

I have found the problem. Its from having ATI's hydra sw installed.
In my case I have hydra installed (its part of the catalyst sw for their graphics cards), but I do not have hydra enabled. I see two hyrda processes started at boot..
As noted above SF5 would open scrunched with the jump to symbol dialog box open.. Also if one tried to edit a trendline the edit dialog box would open and immediately close (why just the trendline box I dont know...)... Killing the hydra processes allows SF to act properly..
