JHEarcht Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 VWA 11.1; Windows XP (SP1); ATI Fire GL X1 CAD video card; all five months old. I have been getting a lot of Runtime Errors in VW11 on a new computer. The errors occur at random in different files. No special video processing involved. Usually occurs after a double-click on an object. I have already disabled the Hardware Acceleration to see if that would stop the crashes. Vector Cache is still on, so I guess I'll turn that off too. Any other ideas will be appreciated. JHE Quote Link to comment
JHEarcht Posted October 1, 2004 Author Share Posted October 1, 2004 Currently, RTEs occur when I double-click to close a series of walls. Not every time, but about every third series of walls. The RTE warning pops up and VW suddenly shuts down when I click OK. JHE Quote Link to comment
JHEarcht Posted October 2, 2004 Author Share Posted October 2, 2004 The Runtime errors stopped after I unchecked the VW Cache option. I had already turned off the hardware acceleration because of similar problems. So it seems that NNA needs to work on both of these functions. Good idea, bad implementation???

CipesDesign Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 Yes. I think that's correct. I'm not sure it made things any faster for me anyway... Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 JHE- You will probably also notice the crashing if you choose to update the video driver to the latest driver version. ATI just released an update on Sept 14th. The vectorcashing is directly linked to the video driver functionality. By turning that off, you are not taking full advantage of the video card, hence the likelihood that the problem was eliminated when that feature was turned off. You should be able to turn it back on after updating the video driver. Quote Link to comment
