I have the oddest problem. I just received a new HP Z400 workstation with all of the bells and whistles. Win7 x64 12GB ram and XEON proscessors. When I go into the office in the morning and fire up my new toy all seems OK. When I start Mastercam X5 Mu1 basically Nothing happens. The task manager shows Mastercam running. but it never starts. I can fire up 10 sessions and 10 are shown running in the task manager, but Mastercam never actually fires up. If I go to the hardware manger it says that it sees the USB HASP and that it is working OK.
If I kill all of the sessions in the task manger then remove the HASP and start mastercam The same thing happens, Mastercam running in the task manger but no errors and I do not get the HASP not found error.
I have reinstalled the Aladin USB drivers and still this problem persists. The only fix is to reboot the machine a few times and then change the USB plugs to different ports. I have only the standard stuff, 3D connexion, Office 2007 Firefox and Solidworks. Has anybody seen something like this?
Maybe look at your 3D Connexion drivers, or try removing it and the drivers completely. Sometimes you can get some bizzare interactions between certain things and USB. Strip back as much as possible and then add till you get the problem back.
I have tried .NET framework upgrades, New drivers, old drivers and windows drivers but I am still no closer to a solution yet. The next plan of attack is my IT buffoon. For some reason, only known to him, he has set the Local My documents folder for each PC to be on the server. I guess he is thinking that the files will be backed up this way. When I go to my Documents locally it is actually going to \\Server\share\Greg\etc etc. As Mastercam saves all of the configs etc to the local My documents\My MCAMx5 folder I am thinking that this may be the problem. I will keep ya posted.
Our IT has our MyDocs set up that way as well. Mcam runs fine, except for one issue. If I start a file while connected to our network, then close, go offline and work on the same file it gives me a warning that the Machine group is being replaced. It is being replaced with the locally stored version so it is identical and doesn't have any other issues. I also have mine set to automatically backup at log off. I got burned a few times working on a file at the office and then go to the customer and I forgot to manually back up MyDocs and the file was not in the offline backup. Since changing to automatic backups that hasn't happened again.
This exact thing would happy to me where our anti-virus software would quarantine Mastercam (and other programs) after it ran ... although if that happens, I could work less, which is probably better for my health so I don't see it as a 'bug' with the anti-virus software
Since this post is 7 months old, I am hoping/assuming that Greg got it figured out, but for anyone searching in the future, I thought I would share what we found at my company. My current role is to support, troubleshoot and train our 70+ Mastercam users. I have seen this issue more than once and what we found to be the cause in several instances was due to a corrupt windows User profile. We are not 100% sure, but we believe when a user has multiple instances of Mastercam open when a crash occurs that it does something to their Windows User profile. If you delete your user profile, it fixed the issue. The user will have to re-arrange his desktop icons, but that has really been the only drawback thus far of doing so. After we delete the user profile Mastercam will actually launch. Hope this helps.
The Montana University System has been undergoing a state-wide curriculum review to improve the transfer processes between its campuses. Helena College has been fully engaged in that review. As a result, many of our course prefixes, numbers, and even titles have had to change in order to more clearly connect to similar courses at other campuses. The course content is typically not any different, and any course that you took under its old name and number will be considered equivalent to the new name and number. If it is difficult to find information on a course, please contact the Helena College Academic Affairs office at 447-6929 or search the Montana University System website for the new course information (mus.edu).

Archaeology is the study of past human cultures through their material remains. Archaeology uses many different approaches and tools to study and explain how people lived in the distant and not-so-distant past. Artifacts, sites, settlements, and landscapes may be studied to help reveal how people lived, how they saw themselves and their world, what the environment was like, and how these factors interrelated and changed through time. In this class you will gain an overview of what archaeology is, how archaeology is done, and what it can tell us about our world - past, present and perhaps even a glimpse of our future. This course is intended to be an introductory survey of archaeology for undergraduate students, either as an elective or as a foundation for further studies in archaeology.
