Ansys Maxwell Simulation Com Engine non-responsive

[J.MURPHY104]

 Hi, 

I keep getting this error message (See below) no matter how simple my design is. The simulation I am currently trying to run is a 3D cylindrical permanent magnet. I have an Intel Core i5 VPRO and 8GB RAM so I think that is plenty powerful. Can anyone help me please?
