Hi Stonehead,

Whenever I run Muvizu on my laptop I need to sit the rear corners of it on coasters so that it has proper airflow - the joys of mobile PC use.

Haha I think I will have to go and sit in the fridge for my next project LOL]]> Wed, 08 Sep 2010 16:06:35 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic309-will-this-program-run-on-vista.aspx Message from glasgowjim

Toshiba A100 Laptop
Intel Dual Core CPU
T5500 @ 1.6GHz
2 GB of RAM
NVidia GeForce Go 7300
Windows XP service pack 3

HD takes rather a lot of patience though and I had an overheat shut down last week... all fun

I tried to build it on my own according to the picture on Borrowinds blog: Link here


Besides problems with the light (I urgently need to watch more of these great tutorials !) I miss the backdrop that is shown in Borrowinds picture.

Which directly leads to my next question: where can I find additional textures when I get logged in from the program ? It seems there is no real difference whether I'm logged in or not ?

Sorry, if that's a stupid question, but I'm a bloody newbie !

The Jungle scene was taken out of the new release (though it may still be sitting on hard drives.) We'll look into that though, because old scenes should work. We've spent a lot of time making sure they do.]]> Mon, 06 Sep 2010 09:48:05 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic309-will-this-program-run-on-vista.aspx Message from tripfreak
The only scene that was and is still not working in the new version was the Jungle Scene that gave the following error:

Muvizu should run on a Vista machine, as long as the hardware meets the minimum specifications:

  • 2.4GHz processor
  • Nvidia 7800 GTX or ATI 1300 graphics card
  • 2.3GB free drive space
If you have any problems or suggestions just let us know.

Take care,
