Hello there Learned Lumion Luminaries

I recently downloaded Lumion, but I'm having all sorts of trouble even getting it to start working and wondered if someone could tell me what is going wrong please. At first it crashed my old, lower spec' laptop (dreaded Blue Screen!), but on my shiny new one it keeps bringing up various messages like "NOT THE SAME 52" - and it won't let me progress or even close down the program without using Task Manager. This happens before I can even begin to learn how it works.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I am affraid that your computer does not meet the hardware specifications. Please check the specs here: http://lumion3d.com/faq

It's a week old Dell Inspiron 7720 with an Intel i5 (3rd gen') processor, 6GB RAM, Windows 7 64bit OS and a 1TB hard disk - so that should be more than enough spec' to run Lumion shouldn't it?

This is one of the three messages I get as soon as I try to select a scene or view the examples, it says "NOT THE SAME! 512". The other two messages that I get say "NOT THE SAME! 1024" and "desc4.Width 64".

If I click OK or close it just keeps cycling through those three error codes. I hope someone can help because I've not had a chance to use the software yet and it looks soooooo good!

Whats the graphics card though?

Sounds like its running integrated Intel graphics, which is insufficient and not recommended.

If it has a dual card, you can set the other card to run Lumion, see further here: http://lumion3d.com/forum/f-a-q/crashdriver-crashblue-screen-on-laptops/ and http://lumion3d.com/forum/general-discussion/problem-with-starting-the-software/ for the same error messages.
