I had an old version or six still on my machine. I deleted all the old
versions I could find, deleted Csound in Program Files, and reinstalled. It
works now. Thanks jpff!

Subject: Csound tidy up: Segmentation violation on Windows 7

I've been using Csound_AV since 2005, but now that I've moved off Windows XP
to Windows 7, I'd like to move to a more current release of Csound. I just
downloaded Csound5.17-gnu-win32-d.exe from SoundForge this morning, and I'm
getting the Segmentation violation on all input files. Here's the simplest I
could make, and it fails too:




-o sflib\test.wav




sr = 44100
ksmps=10
nchnls=2
; Toot #1
     instr 1
        a1     oscil     10000, 440, 1
                    out  a1
     endin




; Run this with its corresponding score file, toot1.sco :

        f1     0    4096 10   1    ; use "gen1" to compute a sine wave
        i1     0    4              ; run "instr 1" from time 0 for 4 seconds
        e                          ; indicate the "end" of the score





End result:

MIDI plugin for Csound PortAudio real-time audio module for Csound Csound
tidy up: Segmentation violation

I see some discussion in the mailing list, but no answers.
