MAX 2008 incessant crashing

Just upgraded to 2008, over the weekend. Ive now gone to open my scenes from last week and i’d say about 90% of them crash instantly upon open. The viewport just about kicks in, then ‘a serious error has occoured’ pops up and it goes.

If I merge everything into a new scene, crash. If i shrink the window so the viewport takes up 20x20px, crash.

I’m pretty much at a loss of what to do here :frowning: I cant open anything!

Anyone else had similar issues with this version?

Try OpenGL or software viewport driver and see if it fixes it.

Best regards,
Vlado

Software fixed it, I then saved the scene with only a cube in the viewport and direct 3d is back in action too.
Thanks!
