Subject: Out of Memory Problem

I rarely render using Poser, but I was trying to render an image and set it to 3400 x 2550 at 72dpi (I have rendered big images such as this before). I got a message saying "Insuficient Disk Space to Render at Current Resolution," I have an 80 gig hard drive divided in two 40gig partitions, each has about 17 to 18 gigs of free space. I uninstalled Poser and the Pro Pack and re-installed everything again including patches for Poser 4 before installing Poser Pro Pack and the patch. I still get the same error. I went to change the virtual memory as explained on their site, but mine was already set to 512. I changed it to 10 anyway thinking maybe it's a magic number, nothing. Curious Labs suggested to change it to 1000MB, I still got the error message. Is there someone that ever had this problem? Am I beyond help?

Are you runing Win98 or Win2K. Have you defrag or cleanup you system lately. I render image that size with no problem. But I running win2K, 512 MB ram, 2 40 gig harddrive. and 1000mb virtual memory setting. Now sometiome after render alot of images I do get that error. I stop Poser, Cleanup the harddrive(delete temp files) and Defrag both drives. After that no more problems.

The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

The "Out of Memory" error is actually related to a problem with a geometry file. You may be loading a figure that doesn't have the geometry file in the proper place. **** Another Poser error is the "Insufficient Disk space to render at this resolution" error. This problem is caused by the Windows 2000 and XP swap files. The recommended fixes are: 1.) Adjusting your swap file settings (I avoided that alternative) 2.) I placed Poser on its own 30GB hard drive, and very rarely have that problem any more. If I do have that problem, then it's time to do some disk cleanup, and defrag. (I use Norton SystemWorks and Norton SpeedDisk). *** You might be interested to know that this error has been covered many times recently. You might find more info by reading those threads.
