strange behavior FFX 1.1 and Vista x64 - Bandu - 06-30-2008

Hi,

I've got some strange behavior stopping or canceling FFX simulation.
During the simulation I have 3 windows open. MAX Confusedhock: , FumeFX UI and FumeFX Output Preview.
If I let simulate till the end, everythings fine but as I stop or cancel the simulation MAX tries to update the view as well as FFX UI and FFX Perview.
And they NEVER stop!
All 3 windows update one after the other and never stop.
If I click on one, it shows (Not Responding) and then it starts updating the view again as well as the other two.
MAX stays in a loop updating the windows.
Only killmax.exe ( little old tool for killing MAX ) helps.

Is it a graphic card/drivers issue?

cheers,
Bandu

to be honest I've had really unpredictable results running vista and 3dsmax
although its not a solution, xp64 is a much more stable system to be working on
