mokba, well i played around with the device manager, disabling things that i did not need. turns out when i turn off the usb 2.0 controller vue works fine. try to disable things in the device manager that you don't need, start vue, then enable them one at a time until it crashes again. this is what i did to figure it out, of course other programs are crashing, but at least i have an idea where the problem may be. check it out, what is the worst that could happen? good luck!
