Hi everyone, i'm using athena 0.8.061 and iffefit 1.2.11c installed on 32 bits widows 7. In a laptop toshiba (if it helps). My problem is that i can't save anything i work. I've tried everything that comes to my mind and i still cant save. I just hear a noise (advice) and nothing happens. I had vista, and i thought installing windows 7 might solve the problem but it didn't, so i'm asking for help now.
Jaziel, There is not a lot of information to go on there. Perhaps there is a problem with path names with non-lower-ascii characters like here: http://millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/pipermail/ifeffit/2010-January/009243.html When you run into problems like this on windows, it is very helpful if you open the command window, cd to the location where the executable lives (which you can find by looking at the properties of the desktop shortcut), and launch the runner by hand. If there are any error messages written when the problem happens, that'll help diagnose the problem.
