Hello, since yesterday my houdini(both- different builds) crashes on startup. So i reinstall it and it happen again. The crash-dialog cames from windows-7. “houdinifx.exe doesn't work”. Maybe it cames from crashing system file(dll libaries) from waking up out of deep sleep state (i have a ssd). Most other apps are running (also 3dmax, Photoshop, etc.).
Any ideas (without reinstall the complete system) ?

thanks. tom

Try renaming or moving aside the houdini13.0 directory in your home user directory (to houdini13.0-bak, say), and see if it starts up after that.

You're welcome just make sure you remember you've got a houdini14.0 in the future, when you install such a version.
