If anyone is still having this problem I had the same issue. I found that the programme runs if you leave the computer alone after hitting "table". For a larger shading model you might need to leave the computer untouched for many hours after starting but it should work. By leaving the computer alone I mean do nothing more than move your mouse while it's computing, even clicking with the mouse can crash it. It's inconvenient but has worked for me so far.

I've encountered a problem with using a Helios 3D model in PVsyst. I imported a Helios 3D file for a 38MW solar plant into PVsyst and added the required shading objects. The plant string configuration is not consistent across the whole plant so I needed to change some tables to a different configuration. While I managed to input most of these changes PVsyst got increasingly slow and ultimately crashed before I had a chance to finish. I managed to save and read the scene a few times to keep working on it but it now returns an error message when I try to read that scene. Is there a limit to the ammount of information PVsyst can handle in a shading scene that I have now exceeded?
