Can you log into the workstation with a different user and start softimage? Or create a new user and log in with that account to test? If so, the "holzhammer method" would be to delete the non working account and create a new one with the same name. IRRC I had a similar problem (Softimage simply didn't start without a message) . I didn't resolved the issue but fortunatly I was in the position to kill the account. The workstation was fubar btw, so it didn’t matter :)

Suddenly after a normal days work and submitting renders to RR after closing Softimage I can't start it again. It crashes and I get "Failed to save before system failure". Tried restarting the computer and same problem. I have tried renaming default.xsipref and start again, and I have run runonce.bat - both without any luck. How do I proceed from here? Help is much appreciated - I don't really fancy reiinstalling, although thtat would be my backup plan. Morten
