I just tried this now and it works with NO PROBLEMS. Very smooth. The only thing I can think of is that I had been doing several hours worth of fiddling in AC3D last night (learning), and maybe my session was just too long. Windows 98SE will do that, just freeze up after sessions lasting several hours and I have read that it is due to the system's inability to manage memory for long sessions (that "new" feature of C++'s dynamic memory allocation and the lack of a "grabsge collector" to release memory when new objects expire). Maybe XP has that same problem, I don't know, but I don''t think AC3D has a problem. I'll just have to take breaks, reboot, and not go for such long sessions.
