AC13 Crash on exit

Anonymous
Not applicable
Archicad 13 crashes on the normal exit command. The latest crash on exit left the lock file in the directory. This is the latest of many crashes. With previous crashes I had to reinstall AC13 as it said my .prf file was corrupt but it was not even in my User Documents and Settings directory. I had to uninstall and reinstall to get up and running. Repair did not work either. Any thoughts anyone

Assuming you mean 8GB RAM (not 8192 KB aka 8MB). The cobbled together part stands out as a prime suspect. Do you have access to another machine to open the same file(s)?

I appreciate your assistance Matthew

Before loading the commercial copy I was running an Education version of R13 without any difficulty to do UNI work.

The memory is 4GB but Belarc does not report that.
I have run Archicad 13 on a laptop seemingly without problems but have been trying to get the destop stable

I'll do a good session on the laptop to test .
