FLASH: Flash 4 locks up

[Phil Matt]

Hello! I have been running Flash 4 for about 4 months without any 

problems at all. Windows NT SP5, 320Mb RAM, dual PII 333.


All of a sudden, a fairly complicated Flash file consistently crashes 

the program when I attempt to do almost anything with the file - 

adding a layer, running a Netscape preview, adding a text box, etc.

I can kill Flash with the NT Task Manager and restart, but it crashes 

every time I try to get any work done.


No hardware problems on the system. The .FLA in question is only 

about 40K, but as I'm still working out the movie, it has about 30 

layers. I tried to Save As, but the resultant new file also crashes the 

program.


Macromedia has some notes about Flash 3 being somewhat unhappy 

about dual processor systems, but setting the Flash4 program to only 

use one processor makes no difference - crashes again and again 

anyhow.


Does anyone know how I can fix this thing?


TIA --- Phil Matt
