I have a machine that softimage has worked on consistently for YEARS. today... it decided to open up with this error: "Failed to save scene before system failure" then its gone. ive tried a ton of the troubleshooting ive found thru google searches with no success.. can anyone point me to any other options? things ive tried thus far (not in this order): - checked the registry for issues related to jscript and _vbscript_ (nothing found) - uninstalled any newly added software - renamed the user preferences - double checked graphics driver issues by    a) editing the layout file to open with the explorer rather than the view manager   b) reinstalled an approved graphics driver - installed 2 new clean versions of softimage (2014 and 2014 sp2) - runonce.bat (all all versions) - nothing showed up that i saw - launched xsibatch.. it worked i also tried the process manager... but.. i couldnt find anything outstanding.. though i admit at a certain point.. i got confused..and stopped reading thru it. thanks for anyone that can help. todd
