Pro/E 2001 takes forever to start up
Pro/E 2001 takes forever to start up
(OP)
Can anyone help me get Pro/E 2001 to start up any quicker. I have 512MB ram, my initial environment is set to 4096, 64MB Nvidia video card, OpenGL graphics setting in config.pro. Other than that I don't know what other settings I could change to help speed up start up. It takes about 5-6 minutes to start up. Any suggestioons????
Thanks
Brad

Also, check that your trail files are not being created accross the network, but in a temp folder specified in your config.pro file. Ideally something like c:\temp or c:\trails.
Defragmenting the installation can make a difference to startup times, although i doubt 5-6 mins worth. Email your configs to me if you want me to have a look to see if i can find anything amiss.

Try these:
1) remove graphics open_gl, the graphics option hasn't been needed since release 17.
2) remove stale search paths, or remove all of them to a search.pro file and try running without any before putting them back in again with the config.pro option search_path_file
3) check cpu and memory usage in the task manager while it's starting up. If it's not much then Pro/E is doing stuff out on the network.
4) Add nt_cache_dirs yes to config.pro and see if that speeds it up.
Good luck,
