Holy crap--textures crash out system :(

[Rowanstaff]

I am trying to use bodyshop to create custom hair texture. I know HOW to do this (I've done it in 3 different games) but when I export the textures and try and view them with ANYTHING it crashes the program. Adobe, crashed. Paint, crashed. Netscape, crashed. Explorer, crashed.

I use Windows XP, P4 1.6 gig, 1 gig of ram, nVidia GeForce MX 400 cord, 128 meg on card.

This is very aggrevating. Any help with this problem?

I've done some looking into this. It appears I'm not alone (http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?&openItemID=&threadID=f226764a4529f3bfb191275a0b876132&directoryID=21&startRow=1#797f21cc9a6dc87dc49dc7b0b208a61c). What I know now is this is an Event 1000 error. I don't know what that means or how to fix it, but at least I know that much.

The windows XP event viewer gives the following reason for the crash:

Faulting application explorer.exe, version 6.0.2900.2180, faulting module browseui.dll, version 6.0.2900.2180, fault address 0x00001e5e.

Man i hope someone fixes this because I want to make custom content, bad.

Is it doing it with just hair, or with ANY projects that you export out of BodyShop?

Try something simple like make-up and see if it works, if it does, work your way up through more complicated things until it doesn't work.

Not sure what that'll really tell you (can you tell I'm not a techie?) but at least it's trying something. =)

I tried 2 different hair styles and 2 clothes (trying to make a tartain patterned short and long skirt of female adult). Can't get any of them to open.
