Dope Editor Crash

Hey guys, seem to be having a little trouble with the Dope Sheet editor. 

I'm currently working my way through a massive book to get acquainted with 3DS Max and I'm up to a section on animation. Unfortunately however the Dope Sheet Editor (and Curve Editor tends to crash at seemingly random occurrences. There is no apparent trigger, and it seems any action will cause it (even just opening the editor at times). 

There is no consistency in time between crashes either. Sometimes it will happen an hour later, or 10 minutes later. 

The crash itself doesn't provide a 3ds Max Error Report screen, it just provides the Windows "This Program has stopped working" error, in which you can only hit 'close'. 

I can't seem to find an error log or anything, so if anyone could provide any insight onto the topic, that would be super amazing. 

Oh! And I'm using 3ds Max Design 2013 (with a student license). I have updated to Product Update 6

 

Thanks!

Does it do it in every file or just the one file?

Hey there! Sorry about the delay. The crashing occurs irrespective of file (it's even occured with a blank file before).

 

Any theories?

I don't have Design so maybe that is the issue. I'm using Max but it shouldn't be different. I don't see that problem in 2013 and have just run a test on a couple animated files without any errors.
