Hi Sven
the specification was just pushing data and parameters to their limits with specific lags of  1 3 6 and 9 years specified in the 2 dependent variables to try to pick up some cyclical elements in the data and  with only 22 observations. I will try it dropping the lag 9 later (I have other ARMAX results I don't want to risk losing at present until I have finished the session) to see if it makes the difference between crash or go!
Windows 10 OS. However, i would have expected some failure messages, not a complete crash.

Thanks, that's already enough - I can confirm the crash here on Windows with the latest snapshot (with 22 obs and using the GUI to enter the lag choice "1,3,6,9", without the quotes).

Although I now realize that using commas in there was probably the wrong syntax, using spaces instead also replicates the crash...
