So if I get an error appear in the Errors app pad, the IDE just hangs, cpu fan starts whirling up and then after several minutes I get a Windows error telling me the IDE has stopped responding.
There is a really helpful error which appears when this happens, thats behind the IDE so you never get to see it as the z-order and focus is awry on some windows.
