ok, well lets not just end it there ;)

What are your specs, as in OS used ETC, also use a tool called pbsvc.exe to see if PB is encountering any probs initialising etc.

i changed my gfx card from a geforce to radeon a few weeks ago the problem started a few days after. PB is working fine.

windows just this sec updated and it seems to still be ubdating geforce drivers wtf?
i really dont think its a PB problem more a gfx driver problem never had any truble befor i swiched to radeon tbh
