Opera has suddenly stopped working...

oli_ramsay · Jun 25, 2008, 07:17 PM

As the title says, Opera is bust. It refuses to load any web page at all and always displays a "blank page"

There's it stuck on loading a few of my pages from speed dial like google, TPU, hotmail etc

I've tried resetting PC, reinstalling Opera, uninstalling it again, deleting eberyting from C:\Program Files (x86)\Opera, deleting cache, temp files etc, ccleaner and registry scan... And it's still not loading anything!!!!

I was using it one minute and it stopped working the next. It started about half hour ago. Any help woul be much appreciated!

Thanks

oli_ramsay · Jun 25, 2008, 08:17 PM

Yea, I'm using 9.5. It was working fine until tonight.

Mine is acting a bit odd too, but not as bad as yours.

I doubt it's that, but I'll run a scan just in case.

Checked firewall, dunno what u mean by proxy servers, but I've never had to use that before and I'm not downloading any torrents either.

oli_ramsay · Jun 25, 2008, 08:50 PM

AVG has finished scanning and has found nothing.

oli_ramsay · Jun 25, 2008, 08:52 PM

even the "about" window stays blank:

oli_ramsay · Jun 25, 2008, 08:55 PM

I've given up and and downloading Opera 9.51 RC1 from here:

http://www.filehippo.com/download_opera/

Hopefully it's a known issue they've addressed in this release candidate. I'll report back here with results, wish me luck

how to enable proxy servers with opera.

oli_ramsay · Jun 25, 2008, 09:01 PM

I think I'll try firefox soon if this carrys on cos I'm certainly not going to lower my standards to IE7

Still no luck

modder · Jun 25, 2008, 09:14 PM

could you try another browser ?

toolbar :View ---Zoom and choose 50%
check all lan cables or wifi connections

oli_ramsay · Jun 27, 2008, 12:51 PM

I've reverted back to 9.27 and it's still FUBAR. I'm gonna have a go on firefox 3 and see how that pans out.

DeltaFox · Jun 27, 2008, 12:57 PM

I am having the same problem as you, oli_ramsey, it just won't work

Glad to see I'm not alone, it's frustrating as hell. I'm so used to Opera I just cant be arsed to use FF3 or basic IE7.

etc

BTW I love your avatar from Yahtzee's hilarious reviews

paybackdaman · Jun 27, 2008, 01:28 PM

just a shot in the dark, but could it be the skin? have you tried using the opera native skin? I know that i once downloaded one and it screwed up opera. i had to uninstall then uninstall the skin after a re-install.

No it's not that either. I'm really confused about this, somehow the error has made it's way onto 9.27 which was working perfectly

I've posted it in the Opera forums anyway (http://my.opera.com/community/forums...comment2629676), hopefully some1 will know how to fix it.

paybackdaman · Jun 27, 2008, 02:15 PM

go into view>style make sure author mode is enabled and all the other things don't have checks next to them.

modder · Jun 27, 2008, 03:34 PM
