No, neither of those things solved it.The window still disappeared after doing what you said.<br><br>Grass 6.4.2 RC2 <u>worked</u> fine and Grass 7 <u>works</u> fine on my macine. GRass 6.5 and Grass 6.4.2 RC3 <u>don't</u>. <br>
<br>Im just an end user and its possible that I didnt fully understand your instructions. It would be best If you could find another W7 user a little more knowledgeable than I am, who could replicate this problem.<br><br>

try installing the .net frameworks,<br>
<br>
see <a href="http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/WinGRASS_Current_Status#Platform_specific_issues" target="_blank">http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/WinGRASS_Current_Status#Platform_specific_issues</a><br>

please let us know if it solves the problem.<br>
<br>
<br>
if you start from the "with MSys" launcher you<br>
might be able to see an error message. otherwise<br>
adding a "pause" to the end of init.bat (or<br>
grass.bat or whatever the main launcher calls)<br>
will stop the window from immediately disappearing<br>
and give you time to read any error messages.<br>
