Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (SP2). After installation of Service Pack 2, 
Maya or its component programs may not launch successfully. If this occurs, you may 
either unblock the program via the Windows Firewall Security Alert dialogue, or add it 
as an Exception in the Exceptions Tab in the Windows Firewall dialogue box. For more 
information, please see the Microsoft Update at: 

 

 

Autodesk is aware of a problem whereby the system can pause or temporary hang 
when some of Maya’s toolbar menus are being triggered. Should you encounter this 
problem, please send a message to

 

We do not recommend saving data directly from Maya to NFS or Novell Netware or 
other remote mounted file systems. We have received several reports of data 
corruption when saving in this method although we have been unable to reproduce 
this. We strongly recommend that you save the files locally and then copy the data to 
the mounted storage system. 

 

If the Maya tear-off pull-down menus don't display properly on Windows XP with UI 
schemes, set UI preference to Windows Classic Style. Start > Settings > Control Panel > 
Display > Windows Classic. 

 

It is strongly suggested to select the global presets: “Autodesk Maya” in the global 
settings under Manage 3D settings in the NVIDIA Control Panel. 

 

When installing the ATI FireGL drivers, an Audio driver for HDMI audio output is 
installed by default, this may cause your current sound configuration to no longer 
function properly.  To avoid this problem, you can either  avoid installing the HDMI 
driver or disable the sound driver in the Device Manager.
