Strange crash of love projects

Hey,

Yesterday, I noticed a strange behaviour of Löve: Whenever I press one of the arrow keys (or some other keys like rctrl), the whole application freezes and after a few seconds, consumes about 50MB more RAM than before the freeze.
What is strange about this: It only happens on my laptop (Win Vista). On my other computer (Win Seven), everything works properly. The problem appears whichever project I run, even with the Löve tank. I run 0.6.2 on both computers.

Is there any explanation for this? Or is it simply my laptop's fault? ;)

Regards,
Henrik

I don't know. I've never heard of anything like that before, Vista or otherwise.

Is it happening in every game project?

yes. It even happens when starting the Löve executable without any project and even when executing a simple "hello world" project.

Edit:
Alright, I tried running Löve with administrator rights and noticed that it won't freeze now. I don't quite understand why it requires admin rights to use the arrow keys, but it's a solution I can get used to. Thanks for your support :)
