frustrating crashes - can't fix it

[Bryon Wells]

Hi, I can tell this group isn't mainly geared towards tech support so I'm not expecting complete hand-holding, but can anyone at least point me in the right direction?

I haven't used Hugin for a couple years. So I downloaded 2015.0.0, loaded some images, and right after the alignment completed, it crashed. Tried again, same thing. Here's the error info from windows:

Problem signature:

  Problem Event Name: APPCRASH

  Application Name: hugin.exe

  Application Version: 0.0.0.0

  Application Timestamp: 55c5d99b

  Fault Module Name: StackHash_ecbf

  Fault Module Version: 6.1.7601.18247

  Exception Code: c0000374

  Exception Offset: 00000000000c4102

  OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48

  Locale ID: 1033

  Additional Information 1: ecbf

  Additional Information 2: ecbf193ff323ae013a36c5ff8263d8a0

  Additional Information 3: e776

  Additional Information 4: e77620f284c4d5066d221a473eb41903

I can tell that the alignment was completed successfully, because I can see my panorama in the preview window below the error.

I've already tried:

- Roll back to 2014 version. Same error. Re-installed version 2015 after testing that. 

- Run with no other programs in the background and over 2GB of free memory

- Use pics from a differnet camera. Same error.

- Use fewer pictures (just 2 at a time instead of a bunch) same error. 

- Use pictures from a different camera. Same error. 

What should I try next? THANKS!

OP here. Just to close out this thread, and help anyone who finds this through google in the future: the problem was an older computer with openGL 2.1 graphics drivers. The latest version is now openGL 4. If you re having a similar problem, try to download new drivers from your graphics card manufacturer!
