Hi Lino,

heres the detail tab:
Screenshot_Event_Log_2.jpg
Btw. its not crashing "every" time I hit render.
Sometimes it renders - sometimes not.
Sometimes I have to 3 or more time restart the server and restart Blender until it renders.

regards
Michael

Hi Michael,

This part of the Blender crash log only lists the loaded modules, so unfortunately it does not identify the cause of the Blender crash.

At the moment, the clearest information is that Octane Server is crashing inside octane.dll with an access violation.

For context, I also experienced frequent crashes with Blender 5.1.2 after a Windows update. In my case, updating the BIOS and motherboard firmware on my ASUS ROG system completely resolved the issue, and the system has been stable ever since. This may not be the same cause in your case, but it is worth considering.

Best,
Lino
