Program gets stuck!
Hi there,
I've been enjoying Sweet Home 3D for a very long time. Previously I used AMD Athlon 64 and everything worked just fine. I bought Intel i5-4440 and now the program doesn't work: 1. If I double-click a .sh3d file I previously used, the program stucks right after showing the small splash logo. 2. If I run the program (without opening a .sh3d file), it seems to work fine, but then suddenly get stuck after a while.
Any idea at all? I'm using Windows XP 32-bit (yeah, yeah, I know, but I ilke XP, can't stand Win7).
I really need Sweet Home 3D - it's excellent and I don't want to switch to any other program. Please help!

Re: Program gets stuck!
Wait, I just found a solution: Display Properties -> Advanced -> Troubleshooting -> Hardware acceleration: Set it to one tick below "Full" ("Disable cursor and bitmap accelerations").
Works like a charm!
I wrote the solution above so other people can use it too. I think it should be added to the FAQ.
