which OS? Do you have more than one core in your CPU? Do you use the GUI? Does it freeze immediately or after a long simulation run with lots of output?

Win 7 64bit, 16 cores (Xeon)... The freeze happens right at the beginning before any calculation is done. It seems to me that it happens when setting up the solver itself. I cannot access the system after the freeze. But it is kind of reproducable when I increase the mesh level.

Do you use the GUI? If so, what happens if you start the simulation from the command line?

Hi,

back to the original subject:

After the n-th freeze, I give up on ElmerGUI 8.
I have now copied the ElmerGUI.exe which came with Elmer 7.0.1 to the Elmer 8.2 bin directory. Seems to work so far.
