Here is the complete crash log that is created when I run Houdini11 Apprentice without the “Run this program in compatabilty mode” option selected. This problem is very reproducable on my system as soon as I enable the compatibility mode then all is well. Hope this helps find the problem.

In the past day I have had difficulty getthing Houdini11 Apprentice HD to run on my Lenovo T61p with fx570m video card intalled with Windows7 64bit.

First I was having the problem with the repeating license screen appearing and never getting Houdini to launch. After updating to the latest windows patches I started to get a application crash when launching Houdini11 Apprentice. The last part of the crash log located in the C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\crashlog_<username> looked like the following:

+0x7058376f
+0x7058389f
+0x70583998
+0x70562330
+0x7150b84f
+0x7150be0f
+0x4000c02c
+0x76c0f56d
+0x76e43281 [RtlUserThreadStart

What I ended up doing to solve this problem was go to the properties on the Houdini icon and select the compatibility tab. Select the “Run this program in compatibiltiy mode for:” checkbox. In the pull down list I selected "Windows Vista(Services Pack 2).

After this I was able to get Houdini to launch. I have created some simple simulations with no problems.
