[PCB_FORUM] Re: Is anyone having Allegro crashing issues using SPB 16.1 and laptop computers?

We have switched back to 15.7 because of all the crashes and a few missing 
features in 16.0.

Thanks,

We were crashing a lot and cadence told me to download the latest video driver 
because open-gl was causing the problem.
After I downloaded the latest driver it is 90% better.

Yes, tons of crashes, Unix A16.01
Today's flavor routing diffs.
Doing a study with lots of drc's I remember there being an issue once before 
regarding that, I wonder if it's a reborn enhancement?
I've also seen this while using the shape functions create/modify/z-copy.

Have received a few comments of Allegro 16.1 crashing with Dell M70 Laptops. 
Can anyone concur with similar problems ( or on any laptop)?

If so, and better yet, do you know  what may be causing this.  I am using a 
Dell M60 laptop and have had no issues. But I have not yet started using the 
16.1 release of software.
