We were just discussing using GE and GE pro for job research and db issues. It seems that one major problem with that might be that they are having technical issues as of Friday. Anyone else getting error messages when trying to use the latest versions??
Last week I had some issues related to starting in Direct X or Open GL modes.
I Googled the error message, maybe it was just "Google Earth Crashes" and got a Google page on adjusting your settings.
It worked and i can now open again in Direct X.
Not sure it's your problem, but it was mine.

yes, tried both of those. my search turned up something about a change implemented on Friday and that is when i started having problems. Maybe an older version doesn't automatically update itself?
If your computer doesn't have the correct video card the latest version will not work
Andy, Sorry this has nothing to do with this post. I need a new hat and remeber reading about the hat you have and love. I couldn't find your old post. Do you know the name of the hat? Thanks!
yes, it's a Tilley! if you need the model number I can go get it. best investment ever, after getting my surveying degree!
I think this is basically the one.. they change models now and again.
well, it has been working just fine.
I installed GE on a new build a few weeks ago.
It forced me to also download a piece of software because there was no option to uncheck or deny the download. It ran after download and told me that all of my drivers were in need of updating.
I quickly uninstalled the program.
GE and others will get their quirks ever so often and sometimes the updates are spot on and sometimes not.
B-)
Just a though. My supervisor had been using google earth with no problems then hs computer updated it, now his graphics card cannot handle the new version and he can no longer run google earth.....
Thanks Andy! I am ordering it now 🙂
