For the better part of a day now I've been trying to get node.js to work on my computer. Even though I get no errors during installation, whenever i try to run node or npm from the command line I only get the error "Evented I/O for V8 JavaScript has stopped working" and then nothing happens.

I really have no clue why it isn't working and what I have to do to get it to work! Has anyone else ever had the same problem and were you able to fix it somehow?

It seems the problem was with ansicon which I installed together with cucumber. I was able to fix the problem by running "ansicon -u" in my x64 folder
