Can anyone please tell me why is it that when I run Maya 4.0 in XP with Service Pack 1 my computer would crash and freeze with a message saying:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error
abnormal program termination
but when I run Maya 4.0 in Windows 2000 the computer doesn't crash?
Thanks!
Have you already tried the Maya 4.0.2 Patch from the Alias Homepage?
I have a similar problem by using Maya 5.0.1 on a Win XP SP1 Workstation
On that particular PC Maya has severe problems with running stable. After working in Maya it crashes the whole PC but without any error message.
The system is a: Intel P4 2.6GHz 1GB(PC400, Dualchannel), Saphire Radeon 9600 pro 128MB@Fire GL T2
Used drivers: Catalyst 3.2 - 3.10 on Radeon 9600 pro and for FireGL Unified 7.93.4.2
On my own system: Athlon XP 1800+ 1GB(PC266), HIS Radeon 9500 pro it works fine. Also a WinXP System with SP1.
Do anyone know why Maya crashes? I have already posted a message in the Alias Maya forum, but the tips I have found theire haven't worked jet.

I tried to download the updated Maya but my system still crashes with the same message. I think it's probably Windows XP's problem. I'll just stick with Windows 2000. Thanks very much for your help!
