I'm an early adopter with software so I've been using Picasa since the early days.
Unfortunately my first experiences with XP were sooooo bad that I've only just moved to it on my SOHO machines (but have used it extensively elsewhere).
So, brand new hard drive, OEM install of XP, a few essentials installed (Office, Zend, Photoshop etc) and then it's Picasa's turn.
Installed just fine but when you go to run it you get the question about whether to scan everything or just the most obvious folders. It doesn't matter what I press, it crashes! And because the scan doesn't complete the next time you open it wants to scan again...
I've posted over at Google Groups but there don't appear to be any Picasa Techs overseeing the group so wondered if the Gurus here had any ideas?
