simulation processing error

swadish · February 25, 2015, 00:32

Hi,
I am trying to run to a simulation for a fairly large file, with a basic mesh.
When I try to run it, solidworks goes into not responding mode and the geometry preparation window is running forever(about 2 hours now). How do I proceed?

Computer specs are: Intel Xeon 3.00 GHz processor, 32 GB Ram, 5GB Nvidia Graphics Card.

This is hard to tell. It can take some time but 2 hours should be too long.
It could be a bug but also a problem with the geometry. Ideally send it to your SW support.
What SW version are you using? Have you tried the latest version in case there is a bug and it is fixed?
