Please stop ACA from crashing when I render
Summary: Can you please fix ACA every time I render a scene or create an AniPath the program crashes
Description: When ever I create a complex render with model of 2gb or more ACA becomes very slow and then wont respond then crashes.
I am trying to operate a business and I spend hours re doing work because ACA crashes.
I am running a HP Elite i7 with windows professional and 64gb Ram.
I am considering swapping software but I don't know what to buy.

Hi guy !
small question : do you run the ATI CCC (Catalyst Control Center) on your system ? If yes, uninstall it !
I work on HP workstation with the CCC installed by default, and i often met fatal error, out of memory error, or simply crash down ! After many tests with the IT dept, we found that the CCC involved in this errors.
I reported this bug to the autodesk support team but at this time i get no feed back !
Try and report if necessary just to know it's was not a coincidence !

Hi John
I used to get crashes but don't anymore.
Are you using a 64bit system? I suspect you are. a 32bit system can't make use of much more than about 4gb of RAM.
Which windows version?
Which ACA version?
You can open your Windows Task Manager (Control-Alt-Delete option) and under performance tab, have a look at how much CPU, RAM and memory is being used. I'm not a pro here but you can see your Physical memory (RAM), and if you probably have multiple CPU's that will render (Regular ACA mostly will only use 1 cpu but rendering will use all of them). This might show that something is maxing out.
Rendering to too large an image use to cause me crashes in 32bit but 64 bit I can render larger but still doesn't seem to like too big. Too impatient to test it too far.
