I am unable to run any version of Wings3D on my computer :S Is it because it uses a dos terminal?...i hatz vista.

The only thing windows says is: "This program has stopped working."

*sigh*...I love wings, but I can't use it

I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit with all visual themes enabled - works perfectly fine.

i know it has to do with the fact that OpenGL = fail on Vista and Wings3D Uses OpenGL, Good Luck.

Might be it..not really sure. I've tried most of the older versions with no avail. I even tried compiling the source..no go. I think I'll get a linux flash boot and try it that way.

I know that I ran Wings just fine on the Vista computer upstairs. The only problem I had with it is consistent with my XP computer, and the fact that it's intel integrated video->display problems within Wings. So...Wings should be able to run on Vista..

Vista seems to use more and more RAM each time you start it up. It's kind of ridiculous. When I first installed it, it took about 500 or so MB, when I finally downgraded back to XP Pro (more like upgraded, jeez), it was breaking into the paging file, out of my 1GB of installed RAM.
