Hi. I am getting regular crashes of flash, sometimes just flash crashes, sometimes it freezes, sometimes it stalls and I have to do a hard crash (not force quit).

I have flash 5.0a and most crashes occur when I am working in the timeline, selecting a frame or frames.

To counter this problem I have tested with minimal extensions, with no extensions. I have trashed the flash preferences and have reinstalled flash and flash 5.0a. I have even copied the entire flash movie and pasted it into a brand new (empty) fla. I have done virus checks on my computer and tested the hardware and software for errors (eg for bad memory).

The .fla is relatively large, 15 - 30mb because there are a lot of objects (gifs and sound). The .swf is 1.5 mb which is fine and I don't have problems exporting. One strange thing is that when I was working on this project on my G3 with OS9.0 and less memory I was not having these problems.

I have searched the MM tech notes and the web for help but have not yet found the answer.. Any ideas ?
