MikeB Posted March 24, 2000 Share Posted March 24, 2000 Ive noticed one pattern with the freezing Ive experienced with the new G4. When I grab an object to drag it across the screen and I get to the edge of the screen VW starts to pan automatically. Every so often (enough to be a problem) the program will freeze and I have to force quit. I'm running the 8.5.2 beta, but I had this problem on 8.5.1. Quote Link to comment
amfethes Posted March 24, 2000 Share Posted March 24, 2000 Mike, This may be a video problem. I've had panning and zooming crashes with my newer G4. Recent posts to this BB and VW list suggest turning off the ATI Rage extensions. This did not work for me, but may help you. I've also found this only happens with certain pre 8.5 files. I'm running a G4 400/256 w/ 100MB to VW - VW8.5.1 - OS9. HTH. Andrew. Quote Link to comment
MikeB Posted March 27, 2000 Author Share Posted March 27, 2000 I tried to disable all of my graphics accleration extensions but that didn't help. Thanks for the suggestion though. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted April 5, 2000 Share Posted April 5, 2000 How has the 8.5.2 been working for you. It seems to help some people but we don't feel it solves the problem. Please let us know. ------------------ Shawn Waithe Diehl Graphsoft inc. Tech Support Manager Quote Link to comment
MikeB Posted April 5, 2000 Author Share Posted April 5, 2000 8.5.2 didn't help but I turned off my virtual memory and I haven't crashed since. This is fine most of the time but when I open several documents or I'm working on a complex 3-D model I have to have Virtual Memory on so it's still a problem. Quote Link to comment
