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. Brian 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). Of course, with a max lag of 9 you only have 13 effective obs left and that is just barely enough to estimate 4*2 + 2 = 10 parameters in each equation. Nonetheless, in theory it should still work (although I wouldn't recommend it econometrically), and needless to say a crash is never acceptable. I suspect that the fix will be relatively easy (for Allin, that is ;-) cheers sven _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list -- gretl-users(a)gretlml.univpm.it To unsubscribe send an email to gretl-users-leave(a)gretlml.univpm.it Website: https://gretlml.univpm.it/postorius/lists/gretl-users.gretlml.univpm.it/
