Hello
I havent used Octane in a while.. I now want it on my laptop to use it.
I purchased it last year and have not updated it in a while.
1) I downloaded it (OctaneRender_DEMO_1025_beta257_win_x64)
is that correct?
2) when I went to start it - it gave me an error: that my nvcuda.dll is missing- what does that mean?
I reinstalled it and did it again, and I got the same message.
3) in order to use it on my laptop I will have to deactivate it from my other computer right?

let me know what I am doing wrong, if anyone has any ideas

thanks!

The cuda toolkit has change to 4.0, first try to get the latest driver for your GFX card.
Deactivation takes about 30-60 minutes before you activate on another computer.
But I think it is a driver issue.
