Hi, i just got Rayfire 1.45 on 3ds max 2010 and no matter what scene i have set up, any setting for rayfire at all, reactor and physx both crash as soon as I hit the create animation button, on the progress bar at the bottom, it says setting up scene and it stops at 70%. ive tried re installing physx but that didnt help, Ive tried cleaning my registry and that didnt help either, I think it might be because of vista just being a bad OS in general, but can anyone help me?

Do you try to simulate a lot of object?
Try to sim one simple box.
Also are you sure that both reactor and PhysX freeze Max at 70%?

I've experiences similar issues with Particle Box #2 (wich uses PhysX). You're probably using 64-bit max, give it a try in 32-bit max :) Also, check out what version of Nvidia PhysX you've got installed. Too old or new versions can sometimes cause crashes...
