Quote - Since I installed the latest update for Poser 7, half way through a render my computer switches off. Has anyone else experienced this problem and/or know how to fix it?

Before the update, my Poser 7 seemed very stable. Is it possible to go back to an earlier update or does it mean I have to reinstall Poser to get rid of the last update?

If your computer is actually turning off (it happened to me earlier this week) it's an overheating issue, almost certainly. Hot summer days, plus a heck of a load put on the CPU during rendering and your CPU temps may be triggering an automatic power down (which most motherboards do as a safety to prevent your CPU from being fried).

These threads are discussing the same/similar issues:
