style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Hi, <BR>I am having a problem w/the equest
program. When I run a simulation, it gets to 18% complete, and the freezes
up. It displays 'ready' in the bottom right corner, but no calculations
are being performed. If I click anywhere in the program window, it lists
'not responding'. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the program
with similar results. Is there any way to solve this problem? I am
currently at a dead end and am not sure of any way to perform a simulation at
this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thx.</SPAN></FONT></P>
