Hello NI community.
Me and my college class have been having trouble with filtered full-wave bridge rectifiers in Multisim 11.0. I have not seen a post about this topic, if i am mistaken then please direct me to said post.
When i try to simulate a full-wave bridge rectifier with a filtering capacitor, Multi sim immediately throws me a convergence error. I have tried letting multi sim resolve the error, to no avail. I have tried using many different componoents and even pre-made parts from the FWB category. It has worked for me a few times but i have no idea what the differences were.
Also my entire class is having the same problem, not just me. I attached a photo of the schemtic.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated as we have lab practicals coming up.

There may be something with the simulation configuration as I drew your schematic (attached) and there were no issues. I just used whatever my configuration defaults to. In the future, you may want to include the actual design file and not just a picture since there is a lot of information that does not get conveyed with a picture.
