i'm working on the Apache Helecopter tutorial for about the 5th time since i keep losing my work or cant find the newest one. so this time iv sat down for 3 hours just to get constant "fatal error" now when i try to open my project it just crashs with another fatal error before i can see anything.

can anyone else open my project and see whether its my compuer/copy or if the file is corrupt.

any ideas why its doing this would be nice
