Try this one:

shut down everything you dont need like Audio players,ICQ etc.

Then try again...

Change the driver it's using. I had that problem when it was set to direct3d..I moved it to openGL and it worked fine

THERE IS A BACKUP FOLDER!!!!

In your main directory of gMAX it should show a folder named "autoback". In there there are renamed gMAX files. They are shown as unregistered file types but open them thru gMAX.

If I´m right gMAX autosaves files just like 3Ds MAX does. It saves a couple of files to make sure you have a backup of your latest work when needed, lets say it saves a file after five minutes, after five more minutes it saves a new one and so on until it restarts with the names.

I dont have gMAX installed for the moment since I´m using 3Ds MAX but If my memory doesnt fail me this is the way it is. Happy backuping ;-)
