Why Does It Crash As Soon As I Load Th Program? Can U Help?

As soon as i click on the icon and start to use blender, it crashes. I have tried unoinstalling and re-installing but it won’t work
Can U Help??

I don’t think that we will be able to help you unless you give us a few more information…

I’ll ask the usual questions…

  1. Which version of Blender??? (I have to assume the obvious, Blender 2.27, but you never know…)

  2. What operating system are you running??? (windows98/Me/2000/XP? Linux? MacOS? else???)

  3. Have you tried to download Blender one more time??? Sometimes during transfer it happens that the file gets corrupted… Try one more time and tell us…

  4. How powerful is your pc (CPU, memory, graphic card… Allthough a moderate pc could run Blender pretty well, but then again you never know…)???

This is weird, cause I’ve heard lots of people complaining about various problems, but I don’t recall anyone saying that Blender doesn’t start at all… :o

Anyway, please give us a few more information about the conditions under which your problem occurs and perhaps we will be able to help you…

Wish you good luck…

The “I click on the icon” part makes my instincts think he is on Win32 :slight_smile:

Can your instinct also tell, wether he is on Win98, Win Me, Win 2K, or XP??? :slight_smile:

Not really… well, he might also be on Win95 :slight_smile:

Also, that “Reinstall-to-fix-things”-attitude sounds very much like windows :slight_smile:

Naaahhhhh… unless he specifically states: “It crashed and I had to reboot…”, I will not consider it safe to assume that he’s on any kind of Windows o.s… :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyway, apart from joking, the info that you give us, is too limited to allow us to give any help, scottyboy25…

Please come back and tell us more…

<EDIT> Ohhh and in case it makes any sense to you, I remember that a lot of people have reported several problems with Blender 2.27 running on Windows 2000, (from slow performance, to crashes…) and a few reported the same problems with XP…

Maybe that’s your case…

I hope this helps…</EDIT>
