Hey there, I've just had 2011 installed on my 64bit, Windows XP 64 professional work station. Anyways, as the title says, when I click the slab or floor button. It Revit just shuts right down, and gives me the autodesk error report box. I've been doing a little bit of searching in the forums for similar problems with not much success. The two main things to try for crashing in general is to check for video card driver updates (I haven't done that yet), or turning off the graphics accelerator. I tried shutting of the accelerator, and the problem is still there. It can't be a file related problem because I'm in a new project. Has anyone run into this problem? Thanks Trevor

hello trevor

i just posted a similar thread, but not with specifics like yours.  your point about the graphics accellorator - i just remembered, on one of our computers a few weeks ago, we turned it off, and there have been no crashes on it!  we have just turned off the accellorator on the crashing computer, and will let you know how it goes.

Thanks for replying Latemore.  It turns out that my problem with Revit crashing had to do with my windows registry.  The office I am working at had recently moved into a bigger one with more people.  During the migration process, there were some issues with my machine, (says my network administrator).  So I think that my problem is specific to me only.

 Thanks

Trev

hello trevor

that is excellent that you fixed the problem.  we are not super computer wizzkids here in my office, so can you please explain what you did with your "windows registry".  our computers are standalone machines, connected to a file server, so not a network as such.

thanks for your help.  peter

Esentially all we did to fix our problem was to make my work station to be an administrator status.  Which seemed to fix the problem completly.  Most poeple in my office do not have administrator set up on their machines, so they can't install programs.  My network administrator says that there is a way for Revit 2011 to run good with out adminstrator status, but this is a work around that they are doing for now.  So I don't really know the exact reason for the problem, I just know what they did to fix it.

thanks trevor

in my office all users are administrators of their own machine, so i guess that is another thing i can cross off.  revit crashed again twice yesterday on that one computer.  we are going to get our computer tech in to look at things!

regards peter
