Matt P Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 I seem to be having some full on issues with my vectorworks. HP dv6000 Laptop with Intel core 2 cpu with T5500 1.67Ghz 2Gb ddr2 ram Nvidia go7400 256mb (128 dedicated 128 integrated) Windows Vista Home Premium Vectorworks 12.5.2 Last week it would crash on me within the first 3 or 4 minutes of openings when I went to do anything with some 3d imagery ? very simple stuff, not large files either, just starting the files up for a uni project, and it kept crashing on me. So I couldn?t do 3d at all which was frustrating enough. And yet it worked fine on anything that was 2d. I have done 3d in the past with no problems, big files too. When I say crash I mean this: it stops responding out of the blue, so that you can still move your pointer around, and open into other programs and all that, but when you sit your pointer over an icon it wont let you select anything, eventually it states ?vectorworks is not responding? and puts up the loading icon (vistas circle) ? I left it on one night to see if anything happened and it kept doing it all night ? in other words it will never respond, its crashed. Well now it wont even open at all, as of Wednesday night it just stopped opening ? it tries to start up and then I get this message: Vectorworks Application has stopped working Windows can check online for a solution to the program - check online for a solution and then close the program - close the program View problem details: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: VECTOR~1.EXE Application Version: 12.5.2.5505 Application Timestamp: 4654d31b Fault Module Name: QuickTime.qts Fault Module Version: 7.2.0.240 Fault Module Timestamp: 4684a825 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 001004f5 OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.768.3 Locale ID: 5129 Additional Information 1: 720c Additional Information 2: 87abfdde4e44868a2d32f6948e899598 Additional Information 3: 072c Additional Information 4: a4dad178cb668e0ad64c9732c853becf Read our privacy statement: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=50163&clcid=0x0409 It says its a quicktime fault and I recall having some initial issues with it crashing a few months ago when i first got it and it turned out to be a quicktime thing, so I installed the latest quicktime and that fixed that. I have since tried that again to no avail?? I have uninstalled quicktime and reinstalled different versions etc - nup! I thought maybe it was an issue with the graphics card driver? But I have updated that too ? from both the nvidia driver website, and the hp website and the vista updating driver thing ? I have even uninstalled the driver and reinstalled ? nothing. I have done system restores from earlier points and that hasn?t done anything. Something appears to be not compatible ? I?m assuming it?s a mix between vista, nvidia, and vectorworks. I have up to date antivirus software and adware remover ? so I?m positively sure its not a virus of any sort. Any solutions? Anyone with the same issues? Cheers Matt Quote Link to comment
Matt P Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 further, I have uninstalled quicktime and reinstalled it. i have installed different versions, i have uninstalled vectorworks and reinstalled it using the quicktime from the cd after uninstalling that! That has got my Vw back - but its back to the original problem, it crashes really quick on me, like within a few minutes of starting up. So it hasn't solved anything. Quote Link to comment
