V5R17 Crash on Open, Vista64, 8GB Ram.
V5R17 Crash on Open, Vista64, 8GB Ram.
(OP)
When opening Catia I receive the error "Runtime execption" "Click OK to terminate". This only occurs when I load 8GB of ram, (4 sticks/slots).
Catia runs perfectly when I only have 4GB (2 sticks/slots).
I have purchased and have in front of me 4 different brands/speeds of ram, I have overclocked and underclocked everything on my system to see if I could find a solution, nothing.
A recent project that I have requires around 6.5GB's of RAM and I can not get it to work, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in Advance,
Jeff

Hey, Jeff - What does your Catia reseller tell you about installing Catia on Vista?
That's the first place to start!

I'm not trying to be a jerk, just letting you know that there aren't many advantages to be "adventurous" with Catia installations. It's guaranteed not to work. Hell, it doesn't work right most of the time on supported installations, so forget about the rest...
Probably you need to look deeper in the internet for this type of advice. This is the realm of crackers, not tube jockeys. Without being (or at least, trying to be) too accusatory, most people who ask these kinds of questions aren't running legit software, anyway. (and there aren't any real advantages to doing so, anyway, as the OS will most likely be supported at the next release, anyway)

As with my other question your replies/questions and now advise so far has yielded nothing other than me being drawn to this forum due to reply notifications.
Catia works fine of Vista, I tested it thoroughly by actually using it in production and it does not have an issue except on my ASUS p5k with 8GB of memory, I just tested it on my Dell 390 with 8GB Vista everything works fine.
It is a stability issue with the memory, that is the issue at hand in case someone else runs into this. I will post furthur once problem is resolved.

I guess that's just the way it goes. As stated many times before, the advice is worth at least as much as what you paid for it.
I took the time to reply, to at least give you the advice. Have you taken any of your own personal time to help/advise/discuss anyone else's issues on this forum today? (ever?)
I'll leave it at that.

Thank you DBezaire, I actually grabbed a 690 from my day job and everything loaded and worked great. Ordered one myself.
The issue with my home computer with Vista was ONLY the memory controller on the motherboard rather than compatibility with Vista. In my opinion Vista was more stable and less buggy. I have already had a product crash on a rebuild with the XP64 machine.
