    As I've mentioned in another thread, here's what I do when it crashes (it does save your work, just as a .SAV file)

    1) Rename the current .brd file, just in case
    2) Open allegro
    3) Type shell (cr = carriage return)
    4) Type dbdoctor

    This will take your last saved .SAV file, fix it, and save it as a .brd file
    Open it in Allegro and continue on.

    Good day.
    Mitch

    Can you verify the ISR level you are at? Go to Help>About

    The current release is 16.01 S030 dated 7/23/2008. If you have a P00X number you are running the base release. You should obtain the latest ISR from Sourcelink.

    Also try disabeling the OpenGL in Setup>User Preferences. If the crashes stop I would suggest getting the latest drivers for your video card.

    Just some of the things you can try.

    Regards,
