On Vista, with protections turned on, I got something that might be related. My issue is not related. Sparx has addressed both issues. I will leave the link below in case anyone is interested in following both threads.

[edit]I moved the rest of this reply to this new thread.

Sparxians: Unfortunately I started the new thread after posting the bug report; please accept my apology for the indirect link.[/edit]

I've just responded to Bob's email, but thought I'd reproduce it here for the benefit of others:

The crash is caused by a bug under systems with display settings of over 96 DPI (eg 120 DPI). We have identified the cause of the issue and the fix should appear in the next release of Enterprise Architect.

In the mean time you can work around the issue in Beta 2 (build 841) by dropping your DPI level to 96 DPI (apologies for the inconvenience!).
Best Regards,

Michael
