Does max 5 work with Win XP?

[Dave Black]

Works like a charm.

I'm using it in production now, and I have'nt had any problems. Remember that XP is a memory hog, so you may take a performance hit.

Set the XP gui back to being like win2000, and it will help some.

I just bought a new PC... its fast and Max runs great in XP. I used to disable all the XP stuff but now I leave it and its just as fast! hehe... cool.

everything that worked with 2k should also work with xp

you need the newest license system for max to work on XP (max 4)... ;)

har

right...forgot to mention that

the download is free at discreet as far as i know

[andym2001ok]

They have the cdilla patch to let Max4 run on XP, I have it :)

Im still trying to figure out how to get Max5 to install right, it keeps causing errors and Ive contacted Discreet many times to no avail.

I've been using max 5 on xp for a year now and no problems. I have installed it dozens of times after formatting and everything and never had a proplem. Although there was a time that the transform gizmo disappeared but I just reinstalled and it fixed it. :)

Max5: Um, max 5 hasn't been out a year yet. Why would you need to install it dozens of times? And just to be helpful =) if your transform Gizmo disappears, hit "x" its alot easier than reinstalling.
Solve, I use win2k, but all you need is the cdilla update for XP from Discreet. 3Dzealot is right about reverting to a win2k gui, it will help you with your rescources.:beer:
