Have you tried loading the Octane demo scenes?
These should work ok and will at least verify your setup is functional.
My guess is that you havent exported the .obj from Max with the right options.
Perhaps something is different about 2011 version?

what demo scenes? where can I find them?

the demo suite found on the download page.
it could be your 3d models are so big that you run out of memory (voxelisation in octane is very intense in memory consumption) and you start swapping, so it will end but it might take a while. how much RAM do you have ?

Which OS and driver are you using?
The 2x 480 are not SLI together are they?
Can you post a screenie of the device manager please.
You are trying to open the demo .obj by right clicking in node area and add>object>mesh?...
BTW how many mb or many vertices was the .obj out of max that wouldnt finish loading? many textures + hdr??

are you trying to load an .ocs file perhaps?
the demo should not be able to open/save .ocs (at least it was so when I used demos before purchasing...)
