stellarium Win 7 spherical distion crash

Have you tried to run Stellarium through the shortcut Start -> Programs -> Stellarium -> Stellarium (no OpenGL2)?

You might also want to give the 0.10.6 beta a try.

http://launchpad.net/stellarium/0.10/0.10.5/+download/stellarium-0.10.6-beta-1-win32.exe

I don't know of any fixed bug which specifically address your issue, but you never know. There have been a lot of changes since 0.10.5.

Yes, I did. No joy either way. Another poster suggested version 10.6. I'm downloading it and giving it a try.
Thanks for your help,
John

Tried 10.6, still giving me fits...
Here's the log, I'll try to verify the video drivers from the Intel site. HP says they're up to date.
Thanks again,
