I am new to Spark, but was pretty impressed with the softare. As a result, I installed it and it has been working fine.
I have one particular computer that suddenly quit loading Spark. I double-click on the ICON and nothing seems to happen. I decided to run Task Manager to see if Spark.exe even loads when I double-click. It does load, but then it exits quickly thereafter.
I did a search on the forums and found some odd-ball post that ClearType interferes with Spark sometimes, so I disabled it, but I still can't get Spark to load. Keep in mind, this machine was running Spark without any issues for the last 2 months. I deleted the error log and ran it again so I could get a fresh copy of what was happening. Here's the error log text:
