I have upgraded to 512 Ram, and I am still having trouble, with Vic 2. If I load the "Up Do hair" and "Vic 2" together, it will freeze up during rendering. I really like Vic 2 and the Up Do hair but I can not use them together, I even tried rendering minus the Bump maps, it still froze during rendering. Maybe it's my swap file, it is only 60 something mb's. I am planning on getting it figured out. But 1 thing for sure it's been a challenge for me and my computer! If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
