keyshot 5 wont open on os x 10.7.5

[macbok]

i just downloaded the demo for keyshot for zbrush and it crashes upon loading. i get this in the console

"Segmentation fault: 11"

thanks. i was looking forward to trying it out.


EDIT: here is more info on my system

mac pro 2x2.66ghz dual core intel xeon
4gb 533 Mhs ddr2
nvidia geforce 7300 gt 256mb

the computer is kinda old. 10.7.5 is as far as i can go with os x. was hoping it would last me till summer.
anyway. thank you for your time

Your processor needs to be an Intel core2 processor or later.

i get confused by the naming. i was under the impression that the dual-core intel xeon was the server version of the intel core 2. but i guess the duo makes it a later product?

[KeyShot]

This processor is just one iteration too old to support KeyShot. The newer Intel Xeon processors work well with KeyShot.

aghh, that sucks.

thanks

I am actually in the same boat as macbok user. I just purchased keyshot 5 for zbrush 4R7. Upon successful installation, the application crashes every time I try to launch it. I also have the older generation mac pro with 2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon. So what are my options here? Is it possible to upgrade my processor or would I have to buy a new mac all together? I am hoping there's a good solution to this.. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

the cpu is upgradeable but it seems like you are limited to Clovertown which i think are still not good enough for keyshot. i'm not sure
