This is worrying because I have a forthcoming deadline. Can anyone make any suggestions?

Problem is rendering in Vue Infinite 7 [updated to version 7.4]

I am having trouble rendering a Vue scene composed of 62 objects, 1 light and 1,215,276 polygons. Using volumetric model and Global ambience. I am rendering 500 x 240cm at 72dpi. I have previously been able to complete such renders in Vue 6.

The render time is recoreded as 1.39, 55” but I get an error message stating “Error writing file. Please check available disk space and try again".

My computer is a Mac Pro, 2 x 3.2 Quad Core Intel Xeon with 10GB of RAM and NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GT graphics card.

The internal hard drive I was trying to write to is a 500GB hard drive with 421GB free space.

Has anyone got any solutions.

Much appreciated
