All of a sudden my scatt software decided to act strange..
I can start the program but when I try to start a practice session it just freezes.
I've tried reintstalling but same problem. Unhook everything. Same problem.
Any ideas?

Nevermind, proper cussing and glaring at it made it function properly!

It may not be the software.
Check all cables and connectors carefully for damage. If a cable has been walked on, sharply bent, or pinched, it could be damaged inside. If possible, use a continuity tester to verify that the cables are in good shape.
Be sure the cable connectors are clean and securely seated in their sockets. Also try swapping the long cable end for end. Sometimes the connectors just fit better one way over the other.
Try a different USB port on the computer.
You didn't mention if you have the USB or the wireless model. If wireless, be sure the sensor unit is charged.
If none of that works, you're probably at the point of swapping components. If you can borrow a target unit, sensor, and a target control unit, swap them in one at a time and see if the system works. If you can't borrow components, contact Scatt to see if they have any diagnostic procedures or tools.

Thanks Curly, will do that. I have the wireless unit, and fortunately we have another at the club. Will swap parts with that one to see.
The green tracer is acting up now. It restarts all of a sudden in the mmiddle och sighting. So some of the shots are timed at 8-10 seconds, some are 0-3 seconds.
Rover: Doesn't work over here either, something seriously wrong when a bit of cussing don't solve the problem I think! :)
