I had a similar problem once and it turned out to be the result of a blip in the weather file. I can't remember which file it was (one of the standardly available TMY/TMY2), but perhaps try running your model with a different one. Or, run the model with 'pause on errors', and that should give you a better idea of where the problem is coming from.<br>

I tried the .inp import technique.....unfortunately, I have the same<br>
freezing issue. Any other possibilities?<br>

I had a similar problem some time ago. The issue was resolved with<br>
minimum data loss by opening a new, blank file and then importing the<br>
.inp file from the original. I lost my Wizard data but was beyond that<br>
in the project.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>
