3ds Max :: Starting Out With Frozen Tasks?
Dec 1, 2013
I have a Render message that reads in red type "FTL: Virtual device creation failed." And I'm unable to click out of the message box, or click OK or cancel. Nothing happens. There seems to be a problem with my screen as well, it holds onto prior open windows and I'm unable to have a fresh window in Max. Does any of this have anything to do with os Windows 7 Home Premium vs. Pro or Ultimate? Even some of the tasks in Max don't seem to be initializing. For example, I tried to Manage>Set up Project and clicked on file in Windows 7 Home Premium and nothing happens.

One of the computers that have AutoCad installed will not load all the way. It will start to show the welcome screen and the it will freeze. Looking on the internet that you go into task manager and kill the process called WSCommCntr, but it is not appearing in the task manager.
Originally the pc was on XP SP2 and with .Net 3.5. I updated both to the latest version. I have reinstalled AutoCad and I am still getting the issue. All hardware checks passed.
Also the issue sounds just like the one here URL.... , but I uninstalled the .Net Framework and reinstalled version 3.5 SP1. That did not work so I uninstalled that and put on 3.5. This still is not working.

I have previously been using Adobe Creative Suite CS2 Premium Web Bundle where I work. I recently was able to get an upgrade to Adobe Design Suite Premium CS3. I am using version 10.0.1.0
The primary piece of software that I use is Photoshop. I had not had any problems running Photoshop CS2 on my computer in the past. When I upgraded to CS3, I constantly ran into problems with it crashing.
I soon discovered that it didn't upgrade to CS3, but instead installed side-by-side with CS2. I uninstalled CS2 and continued to have the same problems. I have tried a reinstallation of CS3 with no improvement. I have had so many problems that my network administrator replaced my computer with a new one. Installing the software there gave me the same problems.
The new computer has the same baseline image with Windows XP SP2 (32 bit). >Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU
> 6600 @ 2.40GHz
>2.39 Ghz, 2.99 GB of RAM
There are so many operations that trigger a crash. To simplify things, I have found that the following steps are easily repeatable and guarentee a crash.
*CTRL+N (New File)
*ENTER (Ok button)
*CTRL+A (Select All)
*CTRL+C (Copy)
*CTRL+N (New File)
*ENTER (Ok Button)
*Crash!
It keeps prompting me to send in error reports to Microsoft to check the status, but nothing ever comes back.

I have Photoshop CS5 and would like to upgrade to CS6. I have a lot of tasks stored and would like to be able to either have them retained during the upgrade or save the files somewhere and then load them into CS6.

I've been using Photoshop CS6 for awhile now on a very stable iMac i5 with 16GB RAM on Snow Leopard but recently its behaving very badly. I am having problems with very minor tasks like transform, open, save, move, etc. Photoshop gets hung up and the wheel starts spinning. Typically this is a font related problem but I've done every maintenance task known to man and still having issues. I've deleted prefs, cleared out brushes, action, tools, repaired permissions, my fonts are all clean, has nothing to do with time machine or background tasks (that i know of) yet it still runs slow. This is definitely not a slow video card problem, I have an ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 with 16GB of ram and plenty of hard drive space. I've ticked off the "Use Graphics Processor" restarted and the problem persists....
SO, i thought maybe i need to update my OS and get up to speed with the new cat, Mountain Lion. Maybe its just not cooperating with Snowy cats anymore. I completed the upgrade last night and I'm still seeing beachball working on 72 dpi PSD files. I've worked on 3GB layered files in the past with no problems.

I have been using Corel since V3. I recently started using X5 instead of V11 for my daily tasks. Overalll when it stays running all works great. But I have had multiple instances of the application just closing without warning on very simple tasks like editing text, moving text, trying to select a drop shadow and moving around toolbar. This instability scares me. One time it close unexpectely it corrupted the file too. I am used to the once in a while crash but this happened multiple times in a couple of days. When you reopen the same file and do the same tasks again no crash.
My machine 2.8ghz 4mb ram XP Pro SP3.

I have a new machine that locks up when doing basic tasks. Things such as pedit, switching tabs, undo. I am beginning to think that it is hardware related because the same drawing work perfectly fine in older machines
Xeon E3-1240
16GB RAM
MSI Z77A-G41 LGA 1155 MB
Samsung Pro SSD 256GB
AMD FirePro W5000 Video Card
This is the first build with a SSD and this Video Card. I have the AMD V4900 in two other machines and they seem to be adequate but wanted a better card for this build.

I typically work in autocad with the Layer Properties Manager open on my other screen (dual screen setup). I have been having no problem with freezing and other layer management tasks on other files. But on a particular file, the simple task of freezing a layer takes 20 seconds. Other simple tasks like saving and switching to a layout sheet also take near 30 seconds. There only seems to be a few files that ever do this to me.
I have all xrefs updated and she'd purged and audited.
Also, does having the layer properties manager or properties manager dialogue windows open at all times dramatically complicate autocad's processes?

I am using Autocad 2011 although I only use it to tidy my drawings prior to sending to my client, my proficiency is quite basic. I have been tasked with surveying a number of feeder pillars or cabinets with 5 points of data, pt 1 is the centre of the doors, the other 4 points are the corners of the cabinet always in the same order. These can be imported into Autocad as a series of points and then I have to join the dots, and draw the cabinet. I know a little about blocks and that I can create a block of my drawing and place it over the five points, and then I'm stuck as if I change the block once it changes it in all the other positions.
After i have placed the block, I need to list the coordinates of the 5 points, this i do individually using the id command and copy and paste into a table. Is there anyway to speed this up?
I have attached a sketch of what I'm after doing, there could be as many 20+ cabinets in a drawing.

Illustrator keeps freezing when applying an effect such as texture-grain to a simple gradient, or even rasterizing a simple black circle. My system is about a 6month old macbook pro with 16gb ram, i7 and AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB. What could be causing this? It wasn't like this when i first started using the laptop but has started to do it everytime i try and do any of those simple tasks recently.

I was looking for a video editing program, and after reading good reviews for VSP x6 I downloaded the trial. It installed and started up the first time fine without any problems. I was able tinker with the program and began to like it.
However, I closed it out to take a break, then came back to it (same day, and hour later) now every time on startup it hangs on the overlayed "Corel Guide" flash intro. The window pops up and allows navigation of the "Corel Guide" and I am able to click-through of the links, but it will not collapse the guide or let me use the actual program at all. I also can not close the program either without using task manager. I am only on day 1 of the 30 day trial. I have attached a screenshot.
My cpu should be able to handle the program without a problem, it is running Win7 64bit, with 16GB Ram, AMD Phenom II x6 Processor, 3.20Ghz

I am trying to edit photos using actions I purchased for PS CS6. I started on a batch of photos from the same shoot. I got about 7 shots deep and suddenly I can't "Play" any of the actions. I can't do anything with regards to actions. I do not know how to fix this! I have a client waiting for photos and I can't do anything.

I am facing a very similar problem as the user on this thread:
[URL]..........
Essentially when I open up the liquify tool, even if I just press cancel, Photoshop will just freeze and I have to kill the process manually. I suspect it is a video card issue, so I checked and ensure the laptop is using the latest driver. Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family (driver version: 8.15.10.2869, ig4icd64.dll)
Since I am already running the latest driver, what else can I do to rectify this problem?

It occurs only in Corel Video Studio Pro X3 ... two extra (frozen) frames for free. In other programs all frames of my camera act correct.
At the beginning of each video file there are two extra frames at the timeline, so each video file starts with three identical frames and that causes each file starts with 0,12 sec frozen video.
When I remove the two frames, two frozen frames are added at the end if a file! In the end-product there are three frozen frames between each cut! And 0,12 seconds is visible …

In trying to import image files in CorelDraw X3, I click to select file file to import and Corel freezes showing the hourglass and I get "not responding". It is locked!
All else works fine. I tried re-install, default reset and looked for any upgrades with no success. I'm running on XP Professional and SP3.

When working with an xref background, we are experiencing really bad lag, and delays when working with objects that are drawn on top of an xref. I have restarted the affected computers, restarted the server that all files are housed on, upgraded the network switch...with no results. Tasks that should take fractions of a second, are sometimes lagging anywhere from 3-15 seconds depending on what layers of the xref are un-frozen and visible.

Whenever I freeze an object, either with "Display Frozen meshes in gray" turned off or on, they disappear completely from the scene. Even though they are still there, because if I "Unfreeze All" the meshes will pop back in the scene.
Almost as if freezing the object also automatically hides it, which is very problematic.

What can I do if I am unable to retreive my Serial Number? I've entered my redemption code, clicked "Redeem", and NOTHING! It does nothing. I've triple checked the number. It's right. It's just not submitting it.

I have a sub that gets a page number and a collection of layer ID's to freeze. The sub will freeze the selected layers in all of the viewports except for the new one.
After running the program, the layers in the specific viewport are still visible, but when you go into Model mode in the viewport and check the layer status, it shows the selected layers are set to Freeze in the viewport.
If I save the drawing, exit,and re-open it, the layers are now not visible. I believe I have the "Regen" in the correct spot.
The code is attached.
' Freezes the selected layers in all other existing viewport layouts Public Sub freezeOtherLayouts(ByVal pageNumber As Integer, ByVal layersToFreezeLayerIds As ObjectIdCollection) Dim doc As Document =

When hovering over this button in the layer manager the following is displayed.
"Creates a new layer and freezes it in all existing layout viewports. This button is accessible from the model tab or layout tabs".
Key words here being EXISTING and LAYOUT viewports. So I've got an existing xref attached to an existing layout and per the displayed tip this means, to me, any new layer created within the xref that has this option enabled will be frozen in all existing layouts.
Since a layout is a viewport, I assume this means the layout itself, not a viewport object used for viewing modelspace content from a layout.
Even if this means a viewport object used for viewing modelspace content, that doesn't work either, so what exactly is the point of this feature?

Another problem already! My tool options dialog box is greyed out and will not respond; won't allow me to choose options.
I clicked it off and brought it back (via windows, etc.) but it's still grey and nonfunctioning.
How can i make it work?
