Action not starting up

Hi there,

I'm currently experiencing the problem, that action won't start properly. I'm getting the start overlay on my desktop, but nothing else. It is getting stuck there over and over again. I'm using the latest version of Action (1.24.3) on Windows 8.1. I also attached the windows event viewer entrees regarding this problem. I'd also like to add that I already remove Action from my computer, cleaned the registry and re-installed it without success.
Does anyone have a solution about this?

Thanks in advance,
Honkiman

Check if your screen refresh rate is not set to 30Hz instead of 60Hz.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but does Action fail at 30Hz? Perhaps open for a second or two and then crash? :?
