I've browsed the forums and tried to search to find a specific issue that I've been having, but so far haven't found it.

This may or may not be a bug. I can produce it over and over again, but here is the problem.

Whenever I start the program and press tab to add a SHOP. I can double click it and it goes to the next level and I can add anything after that. This is okay, but whenever I want to choose a texture map, the dialog box opens and then when I click to browse Houdini locks up and then crashes to desktop. If I use the normal file dialog menu to open a scene or model, its just fine, it only crashes when I'm in the SHOP browsing for my texture map.

My System specs are, 1.8 Intel Dual core, 2GB ram, nVidia 8500GT. I'm using Windows XP Home SP3 (yeah I know I should get the pro at least). I've updated all of my video drivers and everything else, but to no avail. This never happened when I was using SP2.

I tried to look for the crash log Houdini spits out as well, but I couldn't find it.

This is the only bug preventing from going ahead and purchasing the HD version of this software. It sucks not being able to load my textures for my models. (Its a bit of a show stopper)

I also just downloaded the newest apprentice version, but that didn't help either.

Thanks for any help!
