Does anyone have problems with the Designer software crashing all the time ? Mine keeps crashing and error message is : gui.exe stopped working. Called tech support but they don't seem to know what is wrong.

It happens to me quite frequently. Especially when I'm using the 3D tools. It could be a bug in the software, graphics card driver or even Windows 8 but, it is annoying. I haven't used the 3D tools much since I upgraded to version 1.187 so part of the problem may have been solved. Save often!

I had an older PC that I had some trouble with, mostly just slow when moving the board around in designer. I upgraded the graphics card and its much better now.
But I'm not sure if that would fix your problem.

Yes I am running window 8 and have been having problem, getting the same error as you. Seem to happen more often when I am drawing and using the sweep tools.
when mine did that my fav file was to big I had to go in and remove some of my pat but you need to back up what you have and plave you stuff you remove into another folder so you have it 100 megs seems to be the limit
"GUI stopped working"error is caused when there is more than one copy of the carvewright favorites file on your pc. Move any duplicate or backup favorites files to a thumb drive or external drive so the only one on the pc is the one in the CW directory. The CW Graphic User Interface is attempting to open more than one favorites file and throws the error.
Have the same problem.
Crashes even if I just open it and let it sit a few minutes. Tried importing an STL and all I get is the program disappearing. So far I have not been able to have it run more than a few minutes at most. Set it aside with hopes of a patch. For info here is my system.

I can run the best game out there but not designer 2.0
I have had almost no errors with previous versions.
