All my tsr's are already turned off. I hate that crap. I have no video card. I have the onboard AGP video that sucks up 8 megs of my memory. I'd give anything for a good video card and to reclaim that memory (I only have 64 megs to start with) but my problems with money are well known here and I just can't afford anything at all. I wouldn't mind the screen going black, but the dang thing stops rendering. You're right that I'm short on memory and video card, but there's nothing I can do about it. I'd kill to get more memory and a decent video card, but I ain't got the energy for that either. I'll try what you suggested as far as turning the resolution down and see if that helps. Frankly I wish I had a second computer I could network just to do renders.

Talent is God's gift to you. Using it is your gift to God.
