Okay, I need some help!! Trying to get started with HOG 3PC, but constant issues.

Okay,:aargh4:

I am ready to pull my hair out, and I have not even started programming yet. I am moving from another brand system to HOG 3PC, but I have not even got past verifying my patch, without issues
I am running a Monster Dell laptop with vista business with all updates, and boat loads of processor, and memory (laptop is about 2 months old) This laptop is my show system, and only run show software on (aside from Antivirus). The laptop is running Version 3.0.5 b2482

I have a DP2000 running fast Ethernet (direct cross-over cable) to the laptop.

DP2000 Ver= HOG3v3.0.5(b2482)75MHz


I am having some really dis-concerning issues with the hog system just shutting down, it completely disappears... Here I am trying to get my patch setup started, and adding & editing fixtures, and I lose everything....Just closes out.

When I try to click on the HOG3PC icon, it tells me it is already running, the DMX processor still shows "running" showserver, connected to my laptops IP. When I go to my task manager, I see all of the "hog golden32.exe's" still running. But I cannot recover the show.

This is really scaring me, because I have not even started programming, and also worried about what is going to happen during a show....

Please help, this is really getting under my skin, I moved to hog to get away from another system for all of its features, and reliability. I am also having problems with some libraries’, as they do not have all of the functions for the fixtures, or perform the functions properly.
But I guess that will be another thread.

I also have the issue where I open something like patch, or output, change a value in the programmer, and the screen will "blip", then nothing is clickable, or movable. Then the windows shutdown all at once.

When I go to "quit", the window "application not responding", and then a windows to kill the process, then if I tried to open the program again, it will give me an error, and say unable to start. If I reboot, the it will work fine...

I am trying to get to programming for a show on August 1st, but looks like I am still going to have to use my old system, the way things are going..

Any help would be appreciated.

    Okay,

    I changed my network on my DP-2000 to NET 2, and things seemed to run better. I have not had the weird screen lock up yet.

    I had another problem, I tried to create a view (on number 3) with the fixture editor, and dmx values on secondary screen, and the patch on primary screen. I received the following errors:

    Couldn't Quickname, "server busy, please try again
    (object 9 in array 7)
    throw from line 1834, file.\comm\comm_array.cpp"

    So I tried again, and received this one:
    Error: Trap:'nobjs"sizeof(T)>MAX_VECTOR_BYTES" is TRUE
    File: c:\src\branch_gut_v3-0\gut\componets\system\fpslib\fps_vector.h(Jun 18 2009). Line 408 Version: v3.0.5(b 2482)
    From server process, PID 5196. thread TCPReciver

    I have screen shots..
    After that it dumped me out, this time ending all "golden-32.exe"processes.

    What next?
