Hi. I, and several other people, have had some problems with Vue 4 rendering to disk and hanging at 100% rendered. The problem, in my case, was a Win98 Second Edition glitch. -Win98 II has a problem with mapped drives shutting down and hanging programs. There a fix posted at the Microsoft updates pages. After runing the fix, I haven't had this problem anymore. - Hope this helps.

But I've shut down all that drive stuff and even with files that take 5 minutes to render to disk, I still get the same problem... So, I still think it's a vue problem....

I'm running Windows ME and I get the problem as well. Last time I looked, there wasn't much in the way of significant ME updates. I'll have to take another look.
I'd rather stay in my lane than lay in my stain!

There may, also, be a problem with the Batch.exe file. While I was fooling around trying to figure this out, I moved this file to a temp folder, and it had some effect. As far as shutting the drives down, I tried all that stuff without luck. It was only when I was checking the updates site that I saw this fix.-It worked for me.

Glad you found a fix, Fernando! I hope we'll be hearing of others getting help for it, too. :)

I've had this problem too. I always get the picture, its either on the disc or vue recovers it on the next re-start, but the program does crash at 100 percent. I din't get this in the beta testing, nor I think in release 4.0, so I suspect it is a vue problem. We'll see. Any one got the direct url of the win 98 II patch - I'm not mad about searching the unfathomable microsoft site.

I forgot the name of the file,-sorry. But You can just click on start/windows update. The site will check for installed components. If you haven't downloaded it yet, it should show up there. Just look for a file that mentions "napped drives".

I got the file, I think you meant 'mapped drives'! Thanks. Er... after two renders to disc, all is fine, but I'll keep checking. It may be a problem with windows, but Vue can get round it as it didn't occur during beta.
