PADS LOGIC V1.2 on Windows 10 Fatal error when launching Basic Scripts

tiberiusjones May 12, 2017 7:24 AM

I have a user who had Mentor Graphics 2.1 and 1.2 loaded on his Windows 7 PC. Every time he launches Basic Scripts or script editor it crashes. He upgraded to Windows 10. I had him remove all PADS products and we just did an install of v1.2. Same behaviour , Fatal error. We tried updating his Nvidia K620 graphics card drivers to the latest and running the

monitor on basic settings. Still no go. Any one ever have this problem or have a solution for this?

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Tim

I have a similar problem when running Basic Scripts and the scripts editor from PADS Layout VX.2.1 on Windows 10 Enterprise
I get the Fatal run time error message. No problem doing the same with Windows 7 however. Also, interestingly enough, I don't get this crash when running script editor with the BlazeRouter on Windows 10. I've temporarily disabled the ant-virus software but still get the same problem. I've logged an SR but still would like to know if anyone else has seen similarl problems on Windows 10

Same problem here with PADS Layout VX.2.2 on Windows 10 Enterprise.

We have to use v1.1 at our shop. The basic scripts completely stopped working when I installed PADSLogic VX.1.1_Update1. Basic scripts not working is a massive problem since the fundamentally important feature of schematic re-annotation is not part of what you pay for. Who knows, maybe update 2 fixes it, but my support whatever doesn't include it. Thanks Mentor!

My fix was to uninstall logic 1.1 entirely, reinstall using PADSLogicVX.1.1_mib.exe, then skipping the update.

My advice is to uninstall PADS entirely, advice of which I wish I was able to take.
