Visionaire 4.0.1 crashes, invariably after a few clicks

This thread is a few years old. Some details may refer to an earlier version of Visionaire Studio. Current tutorials

  Greetings,
  
  I've decided to play a bit with visionaire studio (for the first time) and downloaded and installed the latest trial version.
  I run Windows 7 x64 with 4GB ram, but the program keeps crashing no matter what I do... I've tried creating a barebone project, a project with the minimal configuration, or opening the demo project. After a few clicks around it invariably crashes... The most simple way to reproduce it for me is to click on "Loading Screen" that appears on the toolbox, then "Scenes and Menus", and by the time I click "Characters", it has crashed!
  I'm sure this is not happening to everyone since I couldn't find any similar thread on the forum...
  I can send the crash reports if you wish though!
  
  Thank you!

  Hey, what does crash mean ? Is there a message where you can click yes/no/abort ? Then click abort. If the RAM is getting full, that's an issue we're addressing at the time. And there might soon be a new version.

  Nah, no yes/no/abort message for me!
  It just shows the "debug report" dialog, that has an ok/cancel button and (regardless of what you press) the program simply closes. The memory usage of viseditor.exe doesn't exceed 35MBs and the system memory doesn't fill up so as far as I am concerned it isn't related to memory issues.

  Yes, please send us the crash reports. So far I could not reproduce this crash.

  Thank you Alex!
  I've forwarded you a few crash reports in a PM! Let me know if you need me to test something out!

  I am dealing with the same problem right now. Has there been any progress in finding its cause?

  Please update your current graphic drivers! Old drivers are the main reason for crashes.

  Thats interesting... Therefore XP isn't the only reason for that, it happens on modern win7 too....
