On the splash screen icon. This failed to remove in 0.7 but has (I hope) been fixed in 0.75. Is that the version you used? A fix for this is to run the IDE setup from the command prompt (once you’ve uninstalled Ruby In Steel) in your Visual Studio directory. That is: devenv /setup As I say, to the best of our knowledge, this should not be a problem with the current release.

We would need more detailed information to help us to work out what is causing this. I’d be grateful if you would contact us direct at support (at) sapphiresteel (dot) com and we’ll try to figure out how we can solve this. best wishes Huw ---

I have installed 0.7.5 on two systems (XP Sp2 and win2k3), on both systems VS crashes /locks up when attempting to build a rails project or debug the server. Running/building and debuging a non rails project works just fine. Building the same project works with 0.7.0.73. Raf ---

We will need a few details in order to diagnose it. My best guess is that this is either related to the version of Visual Studio you have (VS 2005 Standard or above is required) or - just possibly? - it may be related to some non-standard directory locations or names. If you can contact us at “support (at) sapphiresteel (dot) com” we’ll gladly go through all the relevant details to try to solve this. best wishes Huw
