Two orientations went normally, and two did not - no cooling, heating or dom water gas use was recorded, but the models ran to completion. I tried running it again in all four orientations with no changes, and now the model, for all four orientations, will complete the run but will not calc the cooling, heating, or domestic hot water gas use. The fan energy consumption is also inflated, as the fans appear to be operating 24/7.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I then tried uninstalling 3.64 and reinstalling a fresh copy, downloaded directly from the equest website.
