hello

I dont know the reason, but when I switch to pathtracing in the scene, then screen goes to blank and then shows up some nvidia driver problem from resident windows panel.

Problem appears only in the higher resolution, up to 1500 x 900 everything is working without problems.
My scene took only 100 Mb Vram.
Maybe I have weak power supply (430 W), but Furmark is stable. :idea:
Any idea what might be causing it ? :?

Tomas

fyi, my scene

Yeah, I was just about to advice you to install the beta 2.2b witch automatically fix this, but you can manually edit the registry.. Don't forget to reboot after you apply watchdog hax..
