Comment 23 for bug 692957

I have been having this same issue with version 2011.0.0.0fd3e119979c for Windows XP 64. This is being run on a work computer andI have found that I don't get the error when my IT admin logs into and tries it, but when I, a lowly user with very limited access, (who has been working on and in computers since I could walk) tries to run it, I can't. I believe this is because the chcp.exe in the Windows/System32 folder is not accessable with my restricted rights. My IT department will not give me the rights to access it. Anytime an admin runs Hugin on this computer is works.
I don't know if this access rights issue will help anyone else, but I hope it does. Also seen mentioned to check you are running the correct version, x64 or x32. Also to try updating or backdating video card drivers. I didn't try the video card drivers, but did update to x64 from x32.
