ooops. sorry, dude. missed that. OK - I went to the last post. It suggests that the problem may be with a corrupt file (Is that the one you mean?) I don't think that is my problem. I am not able to do ANY rendering for animation in Vue. It doesn't matter what the scene or animation is. To answer your question: My C drive total size is 9.38 GB and I have 1.86 GB free space. This is FAT 32 and has my OS on it (Win2k). I also have an F drive that I use for video capture (this is the one I was trying to render my animation to). It is a 60 GB drive with 33.5 GB free space. This is NTFS. Also, I have another drive (G drive) which was partitioned off my C drive with Partition Magic. This drive is where Vue 4 is. It has a total size of 9.74 GB and has 4.25 GB free space. Thanks for bearing with me on this. I appreciate it.
