John Windswept Design Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 I seem to be crashing a lot. I have a new dell P4 with HT and 1/2 meg of RAM. How can I be crashing twice a day? This is a $2000 program it should not be crashing. I think my ram mem fills up then it crashes. I reboot and VW is fine. Is this something I should just live with? Is this a bug with VW11 or my dell John T Quote Link to comment
Mat Caird Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Your dell..my HP P4 HT, 512 Ram hasn't crashed since I bought it 2 months ago. Do you get error messages? My dell laptop crashes ALL THE TIME rnuning VW, C4d, autocad, pshop - apparently something overheats and the system just dies....but I can leave winamp or dvd's running all day and it never crashes.

JHEarcht Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 jonel, My system is similar to yours. It's normally pretty stable, but I have had a Runtime error with no obvious cause. I also had a Blue Screen of death for no apparent reason. Both types of crashes are sometimes caused by video card or driver conflicts. I just downloaded the latest driver for my ATI GL X1 video card. I am keeping my fingers crossed. JHE Quote Link to comment
