render size crashing

Wed May 19, 2010 1:24 am

i set up my scene and i increase the render size from default to 2048 x 1024. It crashed every time when i tried to increase the render size. Everytime it will close the program and on the window task bar it shows window successful recover the video card driver failure. Currently i have nvidia GTX 260 1.8G and running with Cuda driver. Help Please

Did you try resizing before clicking the node button to start the render? I had this problem before the newest release.

Hi all,
Did you tried the solution found here ? http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... f=21&t=824
It worked for me. I've seen also that bigger renders take a lot of CG memory: something like 350 Mb for 4096x4096 render.
Hope this will help you...
