I'd be surprised if it does, since I don't think anything relevant has been changed.

What telescope mount? From your signature I'm guessing Autostar.

I checked the obvious things like the location, date and time were correct.  I then re-installed V2b74 and it worked fine.  This is the first time I've had any issues for a long time.
