Java version: 1.5.0_04 WinXP on Dell 9300 notebook This occured after letting the nootbook hibernate with Netbeans 5 open. I woke the notebook up. I then closed Netbeans. Got a progress bar for shutting down Tomcat and then got a blue screen error and had to shutdown/restart the notebook. When I tried to start Netbeans 5, it failed with the following error: (The blue screen error occurs consistently everytime I have a application running which has an JRE running - jedit, netbeans, firefox ). The database files seem to be corrupted when a bluescreen error occurs. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported argument value:0 at org.openide.awt.ToolbarPool.setPreferredIconSize(ToolbarPool.java:155) at org.netbeans.core.windows.PersistenceHandler.load(PersistenceHandler.java:87) at org.netbeans.core.windows.WindowSystemImpl.load(WindowSystemImpl.java:39) [catch] at org.netbeans.core.NonGui$3.run(NonGui.java:218) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(InvocationEvent.java:209) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:461) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:242) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:163) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:157) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:149) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:110)
Known bug and already fixed on the netbeans side. Problem was that netbeans didn't survive its configuration data corrupted by blue screen. please download newest build and the problem should be gone, netbeans will start, although with corrupted config data. For life without blue screens, I recommend trying switch -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true as command line switch when running netbeans.
