I got a new computer, with Windows 8, and of course the first thing I did was download the 64 bit version of Calibre. Pointed it to all my different libraries. Finally, today, I tried to bulk convert (2 books). Calibre stopped working, and Windows said it would let me know if it figured out why. So I turned off Heuristic processing, thinking maybe that consumed too many resources. Still crashed. So I restarted, thinking that might help. Same behavior. Is there a special setting for Windows 8 that would make Calibre more stable?

Thanks to everyone who helps on this forum!
