Thanks for the file>purge info all. Yes, it was you Wabe, who did tell me about how it is not the same issue with Macs a while back . I was just re checking..... lol, I will go back to polygon display now as it is making me too stressy watching those resource numbers jig up and down . Being at %2 just before that fatal error sunday night seemed to be the only remarkable thing just before it crashed.... all I had been doing at that point was changing the camera focal length in the camera manager. I'll pay attention to what I'm doing just prior to crashes in the next few days and file it with tech anyway .
