homophonic keyboard and computer crashes

[VANCHU, ANTHONY J. (JSC-AH) (TTI)]

We use the Fingertip Software Cyrillic support on our Windows XP computers
here at the NASA Johnson Space Center's Language Education Center.  It's on
all our staff and student computers, and we've not encountered this sort of
problem to date.

I'd suggest contacting the Fingertip Software folks
(support at cyrillic.com)--we've found them eager to help when we've
encountered problems in the past.

Regards,
Tony Vanchu

I am using the Fingertip Software's Cyrillic support and I am having the
same problem, but I have not yet had the time to investigate it.  I am also
using XP. For a while (over a year) everything was fine, but then recently
the computer freezes whenever I toggle to Russian.  This may be a widespread
enough problem that any responses should go to the entire list.

> Over the past months, I have developed a problem with my laptop (a

Latitude D600, Windows XP): whenever I toggle over to the Russian, the
computer crashes.  The keyboard layout I use for the Russian is the
homophonic keyboard contributed by Gyula Zsigri that I downloaded from the
aatseel.org website.   Not long ago the the computer began crashing even
when I wasn't toggling to Russian, so three weeks ago I had to have the
whole computer reimaged.  After, I re-downloaded the keyboard, thinking that
the problem was somehow manifesting itself when I tried to use the keyboard
program but did not originate there.  For the past two weeks, no problems at
all.  But for the past two days, my computer has again been crashing
whenever I toggle over to the Russian.  Does anyone else have this problem,
and can anyone suggest a solution?
