and it consistently crashed on a mouse hover (by crashed: under xp received a 'windows has received and error...send log to MS?' window...then Torque closed up). I havent seen it anywhere else, but I was curious what was up with the scripting in that tutorial (the sample here looks identical, so this may be what the OP was running as well). I ran it through the Torsion script debugger and all looked happy at the scripting level. I took the 'easy' way out, closed my eyes, and moved to other tutorials rather than using the torque_debug.exe and looking into it.
But if someone could look at the linked tutorial and point out what was wrong if it's at the script level, it would be interesting...

I had the same issue...I was running one particular tutorial (http://members.cox.net/midian/gamedesign/tgestart6.htm)and it consistently crashed on a mouse hover (by crashed: under xp received a 'windows has received and error...send log to MS?' window...then Torque closed up).

The profile looks good, as does the GUI itself (both menu and button).
