V8 Mill Program Error

[HillJack]

I keep getting this error:

 

Program Error

MILL.EXE has generated errors and will be closed by windows. An error log is being created.

I'm running V8 Mill with Windows 2000 working on 3-D data imported from Solid Works as a para-solid.

I tried bumping up the toolpath allocation, but it didn't help. Anyone have any ideas? Can't take it much more. Thanks, Shawn

This topic has been covered before. Click on search and enter "acceleration"

The common answer that you will find in previous threads is:

Drop the video hardware acceleration under the display settings

Or download newer drivers for your graghic card from the net.

One suggestion, try to import as a different file type. For example if you are reading in as *.SLDPRT, try one of the other formats like *.X_T, *.X_B or *.XMT_TXT

Also you mentioned the Toolpath allocations, did you mean (or try) the Database allocations?
