Title: 4.03 Instability
Post by: jonjorobb on May 24, 2011, 09:47:26 PM: Hello,

After formatting my PC, I've recently installed Version 4.03 of ANRB software, as I figured this would be better then using the 2009 software that came with the box. Unfortunatley, after maybe 12 hours of use, the program crashes. Further to this, when I close the software, on occasion it will simply disapear, but remain in the taskbar, using CPU. I then have to manually end the ANRB.exe process in both scenarios.

I've recently moved my antenna to a different location, and I've been trying to built up a polar diagram to see if this new location improves coverage. However, since installing on the 21st, I'm yet to have a sucessful shutdown so my Polar Diagram isn't saving.

I'm wondering if anyone else is experiancing instability issues such as these? I'm on Windows 7.

Thanks,
Jonjo

Regarding exiting, rather than clicking the "X" in the right top corner, go to File and then exit. Does that make a difference?

To find a 3d model display aircraft I have to shut down anrb 3d at least 5 times before I get a 3d image.

My old laptop had a dual-core 2.40GHZ cpu and I upgraded its ram to 16GB and it made no difference at all.

Hopefully when I have finished setting up my new laptop today anrb 3D will work fine. It’s a Dell xps17 laptop with an 2.0ghz to 2.9ghz(turbo mode) 8 core 2nd generation i7 cpu with a 3gb NVidia GT555m video card with 3gb ram.

anrb 3d not cheap program to buy so hopefully it will run okay but I was very disappointed it would not work with my old Dell Studio 1555.

Its seems we have been stuck with version 4.03 for some time now anybody know if there’s a new version coming out soon?

Post by: AirNav Support on May 25, 2011, 07:26:53 AM: To clear up some facts, Version 3.13 (Pro) and 4.03 (3d) are stable and they have been around for a while, if they weren't we would have had lots of complaints. There will be a new version out soon.

Many customers find the 3D version slow or unstable if they set there 3D settings to full, if your computer is not a high end machine you will need to experiment with the settings. There isn't a easy way for 2000+ 3D Models to be displayed and updated without a performance hit.

If the software runs fine but stops at a specific time, please check you don't have any anti virus runs at that time which are causing the trouble.

Thanks for your replies. I'm actually using Version 4.03, however I'm not using 3D (I don't have a subscription anyway). Should I, in this case, be using Version 3.13? I can't find a download link to this.

Support, I'll check my AntiVirus settings.

Thanks

No, you can carry on using v4.03 in 2D mode. It's what I do!!

Was ANRB installed into the default directories?

Post by: Team Spirit on May 25, 2011, 07:00:08 PM: Hi Jonjo,

If it helps my friend, I too use windows 7 and I've created a Folder on the desktop and installed my Airnav program there and it works a treat. I did this because of the virtual storage issue with win7.

Worth a try.

Cheers Dave.

Post by: puddy on May 26, 2011, 09:35:59 AM: I had hoped upgrading the memory on my dell studio 1555 making a total of 8GB would have solved my issue it didnt. The old laptop had a dual core 2.40ghz CPU 8GB ram 512mb 4570 ATI-card. Its only just 2 years old

What CPU (intel)memory and graphics card would you recommend I need to run both settings in 3d set to max?

Also which Operating system works best (re link above virtual store) I am using win 7 ultimate sp1 64bit

Kind regards

Puddy

Post by: jonjorobb on May 26, 2011, 04:07:00 PM: Hello,

Using the File > Exit way of exiting seems to work fine, Thanks!

Also, my ANRB software has just crashed, at 1700, so I'll check my antivirus software.

Thanks for all your help,
Jonjo
