have you defragged your hard disk? I can't. When I go to defrag, it tells me there are errors that need to be fixed, then when I run scandisk, it says it fixed all errors but defrag still tells me there are errors and will not continue defragging. >When the render is finished, are you clicking on the small disk icon at the top of the render to finish? Yes. > In the rendering editor window, do you have render to screen or render to disk checked? Render to Screen.
