Rulelist in certain parametric runs upon entering the Detailed Edit Mode.
This is solved by re-installing the program and then all works well. I
think this happens after creating new parametrics, but I’m not
sure. After creating all parametrics and re-installing eQUEST, it seems
to work well. Finally, I have problems with the display driver but
that may be another problem with my computer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Luke,<br>
I'm running it on Win 7 with compatibility mode set for XP SP3, runs
fine. It is a 32 bit program. Win 7 has it installed in the x86
area of program files.<br>

I have looked at the bdl file (no errors), I have also uninstalled and
reinstalled (no difference). I am running equest on a 64bit machine, so maybe
that is the problem. Is anyone running equest on a 64bit machine successfully?</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I am having a lot of trouble with Equest crashing. When I
exit the wizards after reentering them or when I try to run a parametric
simulation I keep getting the "An invalid argument was encountered"
warning and then it crashes. I tried creating a simple test model and it was
having the same issues. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Apologies for reposting, but I am getting really frustrated
with my models.<o:p></o:p></p>

If anyone could give me any guidance I would really appreciate it.<o:p></o:p></p>
