<DIV =content>What version of Pro/Eare you running?
What is your hardware / OS platform?
How about Pro/Intralink?</DIV>

Hi,


I'm running WildFire 4 M50 on Vista 64 bit.


I'm running it on an Asus notebook G50V with 4 GB RAM and a NVidia GeForce 9700M GT with 512 MB.


I've seen no instabilities yet, it runs rocksolid and fast.


Best regards,


John Bijnens

Pro/Engineer on 64 bit XP has been available since Wildfire 2.0 and Intralink 3.4 (client only) - see http://www.ptc.com/partners/hardware/current/support.htm

I have been using ProE on Windows XP64 beta (PTC had a version for Windows 64 before Microsoft released it!) and it's always been very stable. Looking at the OCUS benchmarks the 64-bit OS has slightly slower performance, but its main advantage is to be able to have huge models in memory - I've had models taking 5 Gb or more and the graphics performance was fine. The machine did have 16 Gb memory and an nVidia Quadro FX 4500 card though.

Regards,

Rod

Pro has been running with no problems...with many parts and assemblies open at once.
