When I load a scene and try to render it, Octane Render causes Win 7 to hang and then spontaneously restart

I have Win 7 64 with an FX3800 and two Tesla C2050s, and CUDA dev-drivers 3.0.

I've tried rendering with just the 3800, and just the two C2050s. Same result.

I will do more testing.

it's more likely that your gpu is crashing and haging your OS. Anyhow, download the demosuite from the download page and try with it. Also what type of scene where you importing in octane, when exactly it crashed, give a more detailed explanation and someone might be able to point you out in the right direction

Thanks kubo.

I was using the benchmark from the demosuite.

I am also trying to get it working on Ubuntu in another thread. I would prefer to have it working in Linux, so I'm focused on that now. When I get it working, or if I can't, I'll return to testing on Win 7.
