Re: Unable to start EAC

Hello,

I am back to stuck. Uninstalling and reinstalling on a clean boot version
1.3 hasn't done anything this time. I am missing the little rectangle on
startup that says something about the drives.

I think I tried to run a second instance of EAC as I have a 2nd drive on
the system and perhaps that is where it went wrong this time.

I wonder how I managed to clear it and what the actual issue is :-(
