Maybe somebody has had the same problems. I recently tested Vue 8 Pioneer and it crashed permanently. Then I created an animation with Vue 7 Esprit and while rendering it crashed nearly every time. It gave me an "out of memory" error. No idea why, 4 GB RAM should be enough. Maybe Vista could be the reason or some PC environment settings, which deactivates the hard disc oder whatever.
In my opinion, Vue could have a memory leak. I'm working in a technical support since 10 years and I know memory leaks very well.
The support of e-onsoftware does not respond.
This doesn't motivate me to update on Vue 8 Esprit as I planned it.

Kind regards
