fatal error after save part in NX5

fatal error after save part in NX5

fatal error after save part in NX5

(OP)
i am getting a fatal error and lose my nx5 session after save part. i am running on a 64 bit platform (ibm intellistation)with 8 gb of ram. this machine was originally used to run catia.i have thought it might be the graphics card (quadro fx5500) but i'm sure it has the latest driver. i also thought it might be the space pilot as it seemed it would crash when i went back to do more work. any suggestions??

RE: fatal error after save part in NX5

There was just a report on another board that people have had trouble with NX crashing due to a bad Spaceball driver and found that they had to update to the latest version from 3Dconnexion's website to cure the problem.

yes i have updated that driver too. that was my suspicion i have even posted on 3Dconnexion website and have had no respondses. i'm wondering if it is a 3Dconnexion driver problem because of the 64 bit os.

thanks for you reply

The other place where this was reported also had to do with 64-bit systems and the final note stated that he downloaded version 6.5.4 of the 3Dconnexion's driver and that this solved his problems.

ok i think i have found out what my problem is with this fatal error business. i had turned on the save reminder when i first set up NX5. i have noticed that this crash and error happens after i do save with the reminder.

i have turned this feature off now and have not had this problem for some time now.
