    Sorry if this is a double post....
    I couldn't find it anywhere else....

    When I start my Alienfusion i get this "Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow"

    What does that mean and any suggestions to fix it?

    I remember seeing it in the x64 thread by FindVikas... I'll go see if I can dig up something useful.

    It is an error in Vista 64 Bit OSs i believe. A lot of M17 users here have that problem.
    I believe AW is aware of the problem, but have yet to resolve it.

    Uninstall the whole AW thing and face the fact that have it installed won't help you in anyway.

    While you are at it, install Windows 7, you will be happier.
