I continue to have a multiple crashes when using NavisWorks 2009.
The problem arises when I am navigating through the model and it has a abnormal amount of detail to regenerate. I can duplicate this problem fairly easily by navigating with the "walk tool" through highly detailed areas. Using the hand tool and the orbit tool can crash, but not nearly as often as when using the walk tool. The program stops responding and the NavisWorks Manage 2009 Error Report comes up indicating Error: Unhandled Exception. I have submitted the information to Autodesk several times using this tool. I don't believe this was happening prior to updating to 2009 from 2008.
I am running this on a Dell Latitude D620 laptop with an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz processor and 3GB of memory. The video card is an nVidia Quadro NVS 110M with 256MB of memory. I am running Windows XP Professional 32-bit.
One interesting note: we are using a license server for this (and other) Autodesk products. We have one license, which I use. I typically have this license checked out for a long period of time as I frequently go out to sites and work from home as well. This crash behavior does *not* occur when I am not on the network where the license server resides. It doesn't seem like the licensing should be an issue when using the walk tool, but I do not recall any instances where I've been at home, on site, or at a regional office (which is connected back to my office via VPN) where I have experienced this crash. Is there anything I can look at to determine what is causing the crash? I have viewed the data that is included in the report (a .XML file and a .DMP file) but the contents do not make sense to me (and the .DMP file cannot be viewed with a text editor).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
