Can't start IDE any more :(

It was all going reasonably well - Win7 x64 dual-core Ultimate plus the Virtual PC Win XP fix to get the LPC-Link USB link working.  Standard brand new LPCXpresso 1343. Was even making mods to/debugging Blinky to find my feet...

Now I can't start the IDE any more - just get a dialog box pointing me at my Documents\lpcxpresso_3.2\workspace\.metadata\.log which contains as below.

I had a problem with two (DFU-related? - can't remember exactly, the process names weren't intuitive) tasks running in Win7 - they were each using 100% of each core so I had to kill them with Task Manager. Then the problem started...

Tried re-installing, un-installing/re-installing, re-booting etc.  No joy.  Don't think it's anything to do with USB drivers - it just won't start the IDE at all.

Currently stuck and unable to proceed...:mad:

EDIT: the spaces in the above aren't in my posting - don't know why they're showing up...

Yep - all seems good now.  Thanks for the speedy response.

I'll put it down to 'one of those things' - I hope ;)

Hi,

It looks like you workspace is causing the problem (especially as you get the same error after re-installing).

So, create a new workspace (you get the chance on startup). You can the use:
File->Import
General
Existing projects into workspace

To import the projects from you old workspace into you new workspace.
