Hi Mike, Could you send me a copy of this file that is taking so long to open? Thanks, Ken C. CNC Software, Inc.

I'm running Mastercam, Windows XP, Dell M90, nVidia driver 91.36 and I'm not seeing the problem that your are describing. If the crashes go away when you disable OpenGL hardware acceleration inside of Mastercam, then this points the finger of blame at the driver, so therefore you might want to look for a newer or an older driver that is more stable. Obviously disabling the acceleration will cause things in Mastercam to be slower, I just wanted to try to pinpoint the problem of being a Mastercam or graphics driver issue.

Does this happen if you disable hardware acceleration in Mastercam's Settings->Configuration Screen?

This problem should be corrected in X2 MR2 SP1.

Does Mastercam give you the option to send in a crash report? Did you migrate your settings or update a previous version? Ken C. CNC Software, Inc.

Can you upload a file that exhibits this behaviour for me to look at?

Hi Gavin, This problem will be addressed in X2 MR2. Thanks for pointing it out. Ken C.

Mick, Did you get a chance to put this file on the FTP for me to take a look at yet? Thanks, Ken C.

Mick, Can you put this problem file on the FTP site? Ken C. CNC Software, Inc.

Have you tried disabling OpenGL hardware acceleration in Mastercam itself (ie. Settings->Configuration Screen 'Disable hardware acceleration')? You'll have to exit Mastercam and restart after changing this setting in order for it to take effect.

Eric, I’ve logged this as bug # cnc00027332. It should be corrected in X2 MR2.

Can you put this file on the FTP for me to take a look?
