I am running Lpub Version:   2.3.0.10
Is there a way to fix this problem? or is there another way to make
renderings without using POV-Ray?

I don't think there is another free program to do that.

I would *highly* recommend LPub version 4 (4.0.0.1, to be precise) using
LDView as the renderer.

Agreed if Justin wants to create building instructions.
But I think he wants to render his models.
If so, I'd recommend not using LPub, but L3P and Add on to convert to POV
Ray and render manually.

I am interested in creating building instructions, but I would also like a
nice rendering that I will edit in Photoshop for the front box cover. I
have used an  older version of Lpub and POV-Ray before on my computer with
windows XP, so I am only interested in using those programs because I am
familiar with them.  I would consider using other programs if there is not
much of a learning curve.
I will try installing the latest version of LPub, but I still need a high
quality rendering.

Use LPub 4 with LDView or LDGLite for the building instructions.
Use L3P and L3PAddOn for creating the POV file for rendering.
I'd also recommend making 2 model files. One for building instructions and one
of the whole model for rendering you box cover.

As my earlier post stated: I can not get POV-Ray to work with Windows Vista.  I
also can not get LPub4 to work either.  I get the following error message:

Create Process Failed; code 14001
The application has failed to start because of its side-by-side configuration is
incorrect.  Please see the application event log for more detail.

I have several other programs that I can not get to run on Windows Vista that
work fine on Windows XP.  I am close to the point of removing Vista from my
computer and installing Windows XP.

Has anyone else had these problems and were able to find a solution?  I would
really like to know becuase changing operating systems is a big pain.

Thanks
Justin

I have POVray 3.6 running perfectly on my Vista machine (have you tried
installing that one?). LPub 4.X has no problems either. Nor does the latest
LDview or most other LDraw related programs I've tried (a few part authoring
tools break the clean sweep).

I'd suggest that Mike may have found your problem or that something is wrong
with your Vista install (which wouldn't surprise me one bit).
