Nicklas hi and welcome

you have several problems I feel. I dont think it is memory, but we need to start somehwere.

Can we
Start with event viewer. go to windows log>application tab. Look for errors that say app hang, app crash, etc. Errors have red in the left hand column. You can use the built in snipping tool to make a screen shot, and the attachment icon to upload it. see pics


thanks

Ken

I'm not the ultimate answer but if I had what you have I would totally uninstall both programs and start clean.
I would make sure 100% was uninstalled and also us CClean to make sure the HD and Registry is clean of those prorams.

Reboot and check my even logs are looking good.

After that I would verify the programs are good within Windows 7 by checking websites.

Then I would install the most used program first. and do a reboot and check event log and see if I still have a problem. If not I would decide another program to use that may work better with Windows 7

This may sound simplistic but that is the way I think.

Have a merry....

Found out someone else had a similiar problem.
Here is their message below.

**************************************************************************

I seem to have stumbled across a fix for my sporeapp.exe hanging, and the game never loads. The problem seems to be that spore is having difficulties with my multiple core CPU computer.

When I force spore to only use 1 cpu to load the game, it launches everytime, without sporeapp.exe hanging.

Before I explain what I had to do to get spore running, I will tell you I am using Windows Vista, Intel Core 2 Quad CPU, and 2 NVIDIA 8800 GTS running in SLI mode.

First thing I had to do was turn off SLI mode on my 2 graphics cards. Apparently there is some kind of bug making Spore not function in SLI mode.

Secondly, I made a shortcut on the desktop to sporeapp.exe since Spore installer didn't do this for me. Another bug.

Thirdly, I went into the properties of the shortcut I had created, and in the field that says "Target:", IN FRONT of the directory listed I put the following information : "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /AFFINITY 1 ". This changes the shortcut to look like a command prompt, but don't worry, that's ok. Now just run the shortcut. It forces the game to run on 1 cpu only instead of all 4, and the game launches every time.

Again, for reference, my full line in the "target:" box now says : "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /AFFINITY 1 D:\Games\SPORE\Sporebin\SporeApp.exe"

D:\games\spore\sporebin is where I told the install to install my game. It's my personal preference, yours may look different.

Give it a shot and let me know if it works for anyone else. This may not work for XP users, I have not tried it.

Also, please check Device Manager for ISATAP devices (under Network Adapters) that aren't recognized or have an error condition.

Right click on each of the ISATAP devices and select Uninstall.
They shouldn't come back when you reboot, so don't be worried.
They will respawn if a program needs them - so there's no worry with removing them.


Another suggestion is to remove the .NET framework from your system, reboot, then reinstall it (I recall using this for SideBySide errors a long time ago).

Oops! Forgot one more thing:

Generate memory dump files for the hung apps using this link: http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-loc...g-process.html

Ok i used cclean to clean up my reg. I have uninstall netffram 1.1 and went to reinstall it now it said this has know problems. So my question is what do i do is they a new one for Windows 7 64 bit like 3.5 Help plz i also looked into the device manager i didnt find any problems there
