Continue Etabs errors:
For better execution and performance of the ETABS program, the following minimum hardware is recommended:
Minimum CPU required: Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64.
Recommended CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon 64 X2 or better.
If you use a 64-bit operating system and more than 4 GB of RAM, it is easier to solve complex problems.
Minimum random RAM: 4 GB for Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10
Recommended amount of random RAM: 4 GB if using 32-bit Windows and 8 GB or more if using 64-bit Windows. Analysis of large models is done better by using higher random memory.
At least 6 GB of free hard disk space to install the program. It is recommended to use hard disks with a volume of more than 500 GB and with a speed of 7200 rpm SATA.
It is recommended to use an NVIDIA GPU graphics card with a minimum graphics memory of 512 MB or more and compatible with DirectX 11.
Check that the hard drive has enough space to create the analysis files.
4-7- Some errors may (less often) be caused by your operating system. To see the error code of the Windows operating system, use the following page:

8-4- If a certain code is displayed during the error, using the following recommendations can be useful:
Error #0
This error usually occurs due to the inability of the program to form the hardness matrix. Probably, the number of drawing and erasing of model elements is high and the number assigned to the elements is high. Using the path Edit > Auto Relabel All > OK can help to fix the error.
File Write Error #4
Your hard drive is full and you need to free some space from it (the drive on which the analysis file is located).
Error #10
This error appears if the license to use the program has expired. You need to crack the program again. Of course, this work has problems in terms of copyright and you should contact CSI company to get the right to use the program.
Error #41
Memory space is low.
Error #480
The graphics card has low specifications.
Cannot run analysis!
Your model has serious flaws. Use the items mentioned above to solve it.
Negative Jacobian error
To solve this problem, go to Options > Dimensions and tolerances and reduce the auto-merge tolerance values.
4-9- If the mentioned items do not work, restart the system once again.
4-10- If dynamic analysis in the model is considered as the last trick, remove the dynamic analysis option.
