Regards. Thank you for the mails. But my efforts are in vain. I am now installed the previous version of Gretl 1.9.3. It is running. I can start gretl in"d:\userdata\gretl\gretlw32.exe --debug": but a DOS window opens in the background in which I cant read the things displayed. Sorry for bothering you repeatedly.

OK, thanks for testing. I'm still working on the assumption that
the new random-number generation code is somehow generating
illegal instructions for the athlon. I've now put up a revised
build, gretl-1.9.4-no_sse2a.exe, at
If that still doesn't work, it's possible that there's something
in the updated GTK library stack, packaged with gretl, that is
choking your system; and I can try a build using an older version
of GTK.
But if this version won't start, can I ask you try a debugging run
and see what you get? To start gretl in debugging mode, create a
desktop shortcut item for gretl, but after the path to
gretlw32 add --debug, for example
"c:\program files\gretl\gretlw32.exe" --debug
You should get a console window with some messages that might help
in diagnosing the problem.
