geektrader,
You are right, strange it slipped from my sharp eye. Probably was at 4am or something :-(.
Let me reboot machine and see if it fixed.

For some reason you are not using .NET 4.0 yet. Have a look at the error-report, it shows the path to .NET 2.0 (under "Loaded Assemblies" - "CodeBase")!

Vista x64, .Net 4.0 with geektrader patch.
Have sometimes crashes too, but I just ignore and it works fine.

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

@FXWinner: there is nothing to download except the REG file which I attached to the first post. Just download it and then double-click it to add it to the registry. Of course also install NET Framework 4.0 if you haven´t already. After you´ve done that, FSB and FST will automatically use NET Framework 4.0.

Improved Stab&Speed: Force FSB to use latest .NET Framework

Hi,

earlier this week I had massive problems with crashes when generating strategies on more than 100.000 bars of data. FSB was crashing on me all the time. However, I now got this problem fixed with a trick I found elsewhere.

This will force FSB/FST to use the latest installed .NET Framework Runtime instead of .NET Framework 2.0 (which FSB was build with/for).

Simply execute the attached .reg file and afterwards FSB/FST will be using the latest .NET Framework you have installed (4.0 on my machine). Speed during generating and optimizing a strategy has improved for me and the crashes have disappeared as well.
