Comment 3 for bug 1244928

I have fixed the problem by moving the project to another computer. Originally I was using an Advent 9617 Pentium Dual-Core T2330 1.60GHz with 2GB ram and XP Home edition service pack 3 ( I don't understand what all of this means, I just copied it off the computer). I have now moved to a Dell Inspiron 9400 Genuine Intel(R)CPU T2400 1.83GHz 987MHz with 2GB ram and XP Professional service pack 3 ( a much slower computer) both are laptops. Something else I noticed that was a bit strange on the first computer (when Inkscape didn't work properly) was that to open Inkscape it only required 1 click on the desktop icon, On the second computer it needs a double click, and in the window where you open saved files, I only had to select the file to open it. I never had to click the open box. On the second I have to click the open box or double click when selecting, to open. The Inkscape edition is the same in each case 0.48.4.1
                   Hope this is of some help.
