i have maya 4.0 and 4.5, i have recently been really into learning maya. i went out and bought some books and have been following some tutorials. i first noticed a problem when i went to name a layer and stuff, once i clicked "ok" or whatever it is my maya just stops responding ( in both versions ). but that was ok i could live with out custom named layers, but then when i tryed to switch to Hypershade/render/persp it just stops responding on me. i want to know if anyone else has had this problem and knows how to fix it or what. i am very eager to commence with my learning that i have started. please help me out.

im thinking its something to do with your computer, maybe video card problems? i also always blame everythign on video card to people. most the time though that is the case. i would maybe check your drivers, but im probally wrong. other than that i have no ideas sorry .

pierce, i would find out what video card you have. if its like nvidia go to tehre website download the drivers. just giong to your cards website they should say if there are updates. you could also email them to see if tehre are new drivers. i would check that out. ciao
