    HI All,
    Crazy Problem, I am running a 17″ Macbook Pro 2 gigs ram and FCP5.1.1
    Everytime I try to boot FCP I get to the project screen, it asks me to pick the type of project and where I
    want my scratch disk. Then after a few seconds it quits. No crash just quits. If I run FCP rescue it says I have
    corupt prefs. But I am never able to run the app. All the other apps run fine. Motion, DVD Studio Pro,
    I have even done a reinstall of just FCP and redone the registration. No help.
    Any Idea’s

    Did you previously run FCP rescue to give it a set of good prefference files to replace corrupt ones with.

    if ot you need to just trash those preffs

    Yes,
    I repaired permissions after the first crash out and several times after,
    I repaired them again, everything was clean, then I did a reinstall of the apps.
    The only thing I haven’t done is reinstall the OS, whech is my next step.
    Thanks for the input.
