Too late to join?
I have OS Win 7 Pro -64 bits, Running with 8Gb Ram and a video card from Ati XFX 4870/2GB in it-
I do have the latest drivers in all my system, includes the patch for P8. Still I have same problem as
**NT110 **describes here. I have check it all inclusive I look up the <task Manager to see how much P8 is taking from my CPU (QuadCore6600) results: takes lots of memory up to 6 Gb sometimes but the CPU is always being use max 35% usually is around 29% of it while P8 is rendering. (BTW the render I'm using the max. in FIREFLY for all except inderect light, displament map on, 128 bucket size, HSV and exponential) I like to make big pz3 so the mediun sizes of my render are 140,117 KB (with 1800px and 150 dpi).
I have still not manage to fix it.
The pacht fixed the 'refresh' crash in the libraries. Fix the total crash of the program sudenlly. Still freezing and I have to kill the program as NT110 says he does.
Any news towards the problem is very welcome.
Thanks
Cris
