Problem opening Winamp 5.52

marts73 · 3rd August 2008, 14:05

As I click on the Winamp icon on my desktop I get this. A black box with red trim and it says " Script failure. Press left mouse button to continue. Guru Meditation #0001 00000018c 32. ../Big Bento/scripts/tabcontrol.maki.
And so I can't open Winamp. Any ideas?

Always install newest version first to see if the problem still exists.

Older versions do not have tech support.

Newest version is 5.54, get it here:

Sounds like the Bento/Big Bento skin(s) somehow got corrupted. Upgrade your v5.52 version to the current version 5.54. This will give you the current (and supported) Winamp version and will also allow the Bento/Big Bento skins to be reinstalled properly.

[EDIT]
SNAP!!!

Thanks.Will I need to uninstall the version I have at the moment or will it just get swapped?

No. Just install/upgrade over-the-top. Shouldn't be any problems. But if after having done so, you still experience the problem then try a completely clean install, following the method outlined here.
