Hi Peter, Yep, I have reported this problem already quite some time ago for win98. Note that the last ROOT version which functions correctly on winxx systems is 2.22/10 ! In 2.22/10 you can see that the command Root> TTreeViewer v creates the object, but doesn't create a canvas. All later ROOT versions create a default canvas with the above command. Furthermore, rightclicking in a canvas (e.g. to change axis titles) results in disappearance of the canvas in all ROOT versions after 2.22/10. To my opinion, the re-structuring of ROOT after 2.22/10 has resulted in a version which doesn't work correctly anymore on winxx systems.
