What is your operating system?

Are you using the csound command line application? Or are you using csound5gui or some other GUI front end?

Mike

Hi,
Marcelo is probably using Csound5GUI, and it looks like some preference 
got corrupted. You need to find a folder called ".csound" in your home 
folder, and delete the files g_cfg.dat and p_cfg.dat (or search directly 
for these files and delete them). This should fix the problem.

Cheers,
Andrés
