[Equest-users] file format error! is all my work lost?

[Umesh Atre]

Thanks Pasha. Let me try this on the Windows 7 machine. But I am getting
the same errors on XP too. My models keep disappearing.
What I have noticed though is that this problem might be somehow tied to
parametric runs. I have not lost any data from models
that did not have any parametric runs. Any ideas?

For those of you that are using Windows 7, have you set the
"compatibility" settings within eQuest?  If you set eQuest to be
compatible with XP Service Pack 3 (or 2) this will help eQuest to work
smoothly within Windows 7 operating system and against all other
programs that you might have running at the same time as eQuest.

If you need to be talked through the steps to get this set feel free to
give me a call at 308-763-1593--it will take 3 minutes to talk you
through it and do some checks on your files.

I run 3.64 on both a Windows XP laptop and Windows 7 laptop, and I
haven't encountered these issues anymore.

Cheers,
Pasha

	A fellow co-worker and I have also experienced this frustrating
message a few times now.  

	Both of our computers are less than 2 weeks old with windows 7,
and we downloaded eQUEST 3.64 last week.  

	 

	The problem is happening on new projects that we started last
week, so it's not an issue with old and new versions... just this new
version.

	 

	Please let me know if anyone is finding a solution to this.
