RE: Survey: How often does Solidworks crash on you? SBaugh (Mechanical) 2 Mar 05 13:40 Reality is no respecter of good intentions. We reap what we sow (not that sloppiness is the sole root to everyone's problem). This is foolish practice during development. Worse, I might not even know I moved something. What happens if I accidentally click-on and move a part? All geometry is updated and I cannot figure out what I had in the first place. I've even found completely unmated parts within an assembly in which several parts are driven by the geometry of other floating parts in the assembly. I'm amazed how often I'm asked to work on dirty files by clients and I don't know how they can tolerate such sloppy work. My models are always clean-no exceptions. Sloppy models/assemblies really should give you problems since they're full of logic bugs. I think there is a lot to be said for good practices and methodology. If I use the others (rare), I don't keep them added in. I always have PhotoWorks, eDrawings, Utilities, and Toolbox added in. List your Hardware and maybe that will help us.įAQ559-716 - SW Fora Users RE: Survey: How often does Solidworks crash on you? macPT (Mechanical) 2 Mar 05 09:39 They immediately blame the software.Ĭheck your RAM to make sure you don't have a mixture of types and speeds. This can happen to anyone and no one thinks about HW as being the problem. SW never caused any of this, just Hardware failure. I have had HDD fail Completely (unable to access it) and the video card fan went out. My biggest issue has been hardware failure lately. I run the smae processes on another machine with 1Gig RAM. I run all this on my latest computer (Until I can get my other one back up and running) on 512RAM. That's a normal day for me, sometimes there is more then that running. I also have numerous Windows explorer's up, MS Outlook 2000, 1-2 Windows of Internet Explorer, Open Emails that I'm currrently writing. Solidworks runs all the time and sometimes I have 2 sessions open (SW03, SW04 or SW05). Watch evert thing you do when trying to determine what is causing the issue.įAQ559-716 - SW Fora Users RE: Survey: How often does Solidworks crash on you? cmm (Mechanical) There are some good points made by aamoroso and ctopher about habits in SW that some people over look or take for granted. I'm sure it's something that your not aware of that is causing the problem and not SW. If you Tech support person at your VAR can read the data (Which isn't that hard) then he will be able to provide you some possible solutions or things to try. The RX provides a wealth of information on your computer. Send your files to your VAR with an attached RX. It's a crucial part of SW, but you can't forget the aspects of a computer and the software installed.

Quadro 1100 FX Driver - Have used both 53.03 and 67.22 - Stability is not an issue for me.

Quadro 500 FX driver - 67.22 Latest certified drivers Because everything you do (install or uninstall) on your system will or could make a difference.įAQ559-716 - SW Fora Users RE: Survey: How often does Solidworks crash on you? macPT (Mechanical) 1 Mar 05 17:34

If you made a change to your system, or you install Shareware crap programs then you need to mention that. Also are you opening your files over a network, etc.? Call your VAR and leave nothing untold and no stone unturned. If you are seeing issue then you need to full check all aspects of your system. IMO since SP0.0 of SW05 there has been plently of stability and SP1.1 has improved Stablity. This happens with all SW versions though. I agree there are bugs but SP1.1 but not near as many as there were with SP0.0.

Have you gone through the FAQ and have you tried to do the clean uninstall reinstall process since you move to SW05?ĭid you do an upgrade versus a new install?
The only thing that crashes me, is a customers file that is probably corrupted anyway.
