[Bldg-sim] e Quest software crashing

[Sheila Sagerer]

Hi Hamza,

eQuest does not often shut down like that. There are two things I have found that will crash (auto-turn off) eQuest. 
1. There is not enough RAM on your computer. It will use every byte of RAM you can give it!
2. It can crash if you are trying to assemble an HVAC configuration the eQuest does not support. 

Here are my questions:
1. How many zones does your file have?
2. What components are you trying to assemble for the water side HVAC?
3. Is your .inp input file still intact; I.e. are all components there when you open the file in Notepad as text?  If so, there may be a way to recover your file without starting over from scratch…

Hi, I am new to e Quest and am working on a project but every time when I create a water side HVAC system, the software crashes( turns off automatically). Can anyone help me with this? 
What is the main issue behind this?
And after several crashes the file failed to load next time.
