please help! no longer able to encode

[skahigh]

i could really use anyones help with a problem i am having. until recently i had been ripping and encoding divx movies happily on my laptop running xp home using smartripper and flaskmpeg 0.7.

then i decided to upgrade to xp pro and formatted my hard drive and did a fresh install. i now find flaskmpeg crashes whenever i attempt to start encoding.

i have tried with separately ripped dvd's but as soon as i have chosen my ifo file i get the "flaskmpeg has encountered a problem and needs to close" message.

thinking this was just some conflict with flaskmpeg i downloaded dvd2avi but low and behold the same problem occured.

im no novice but this ones got me pulling my hair out and i would be extremely grateful for neones suggestions.

Maby you should use another encoding program like Virtual dub (mod) it has more options and it faster.
