Thanks, a very good suggestion.


Thanks for the info. I have found 48 of the following error reports!:
That error report is the best thing so far. However hard to work out from it what has gone wrong. 

I see from the screen shot that you installed a lot of updates.
I suppose the main thing here is that you're using Vista. One obvious course is for me to get the updates for my copy of Vista and see if I can still run OP. If I can't then fixing the problem becomes a lot easier.
I'm thinking back to when Vista came out, and there were problems with OP... ideas that always come up are things like how Vista can be configured to not run certain types of code as a security measure. 

So I'll go away and try the Vista updates - over the weekend.
