I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this, but ePrime 2.0 is constantly crashing on my Windows 10 laptop. This happens when I am running an experiment, at the very end or when I abort midway through - it doesn't crash every time, but probably about 90% of the time. I get the error message that "E-Studio Experiment Design Environment has stopped working".I have run the same scripts on my desktop, and this is not a problem. I know that this version of ePrime is supposed to be completely compatible with Windows 10. Any ideas on how to fix this? I am planning on using this laptop as a back-up when I run fMRI experiments, so I want to make sure that it is working as it should.

Thanks in advance!

After struggling with this for several hours, I found a solution. It is possible to run a program in compatibility mode... When I run ePrime in compatibility mode (with Windows XP), I no longer have this problem - at least not at the moment, you never know what will happen in a few hours. :) So much for full compatibility with Windows 10!
