Troubleshooting - Failed to save Scene before system failure
See also Troubleshooting Startup Problems
There is no one solution to this error. For some users, runonce.bat fixes the problem. For others, it is uninstalling QuickTime, and for others, reinstalling the graphics card driver.
- Run Application\bin\runonce.bat.
- Rename your Users folder (for example, rename C:\users\steve\Softimage\XSI_5.11 to C:\users\steve\Softimage\XSI_5.11.bak).
- Reinstall the driver for your graphic card
- Uninstall QuickTime (especially if you are running QuickTime + iTunes).
- Delete any crash backup files in your Projects: look for folders like "Project-name\system\user-name\CrashBackup" and delete (or move) any crash backup files you find.
Update
If you get this error when you try to run 32-bit XSI on a 64-bit system, and you have Nod32, then try this:
- Configure the Nod32 Internet monitor service (IMON) to exclude XSI.exe 32 bits version.
