Every now and then, ( just when I have the perfect everything in poser) I go to render.. and it gives me a meesage that says, Not enough disk space to render at this resolution!!! grrrrrrrr . I have a 512 MB RAM and a 80 gig hard-drive. Anyone got any ideas on how or what I am doing wrong?... Thanks Karen

It happens on my system sometimes, too. I have 1 GB of RAM, a 40 GB and a 20 GB HD. If you're running any other apps, close them. You also may find it will render if you save your work, shut down Poser and start it up again. Which OS are you using? 95/98 have memory fragmentation issues. XP, NT and it's derivatives don't suffer from this problem.

I have windows XP.... and it is only a month old.. that is why it so frustrating. I dont know if it is the program, or the computer... Thanks

It's the program, mainly. Poser is a resource hog. You will find it to be less of a problem if you install more RAM.

Not sure if this will solve your problem but it did help me.

Thank you, Danidh, that's the official memory fix, I usually have to post it every week-- would be helpful to have it in FAQs or Tips or something. It really works. More memory helps, but without this fix, it won't do you any good. I had 512 max on my XP notebook, needed the fix. Got 2 G-- not just one-- on my new machine-- needed the fix. Not right away. It wrote fine for a few weeks then got confused. I use Poser on other than my C drive, that's the problem. Heck, I bought a 120G firewire just for it to live on. Emily

Just ran a render at 600dpi 2000x2000 and no problem, never seen that error message before. Read the link above quoteing the FAQ from Cl. I'm useing Windows98/2nd ed. on 62Mb RAM, 300 Mhz under the hood and about 500Mb of free elbow room. (My abacus says thats 0.5Gb for those who got confused by the Mb.) Good to know I'll be spending a week fixing everything when I finally get a new system and Poser5 and 3Dstudio Max and DeepPaint 3D and Bryce5 and everything in the marketplace and a DSL connection and all the vendors are sending me complimentary copies of their products. Sorry, I drifted.

Generally when you get that error, you can still render as large as you can get the display window-- the error only kicks in when you have to render to new window. So if you can boost the display window big enough, you can still save a render. I did that before I found the fix. Emily
