I’ve copied and pasted the source from Mike Driscoll’s demo of AboutDialog (here: http://www.blog.pythonlibrary.org/2008/06/11/wxpython-creating-an-about-box/) and tried it. Works fine on OSX, but with the latest version of wxPython (3.0.0.0 msw (classic)), Python (2.7.8), etc on Windows XP (SP3) it crashes Python. No traceback, etc.
Are you going to tell me to upgrade to Windows now? That said, the user base I’m targeting is still largely using XP. If I want to be able to support Windows XP, do I need to use specific versions of Python/wxPython, etc.?
IIRC, the Classic 3.0.0.0 build has some problems on XP. Try a later build.

or more directly, http://wxpython.kosoftworks.com/preview/ 20140707 is the latest (there anyway).
HTH.
Cheers,
Scott.

This solution is my thinking as well… I was getting a weird crash when I had a RICH TextCtrl and right-clicked on it. Upgrading to wxPython 3.0.1 worked to fix that.
