:welcome: cabra.

Which version of Sandra are you using?  Also, which operating system are you using?  I had a similar problem with Sandra 2003 running under Windows 98SE.  Therefore, I tried it on another PC with Windows ME and it worked fine on that.  However, I uninstalled 2003 on the 98 machine, put 2002 on it and it has worked fine since then.

Do you know which, if any device isnt working  :?:
Have you looked in Device Manager to check that there are no yellow ! or ?   :?:  
It may just need a driver updating or reinstalling  :?

We, at PC Pals, of course, have a fully tested and working version of Sandra, but you can't have her - she's ours!   :P  :twisted:
