Menus Are Disabled when Octane is Running

Hi,
I have OctaneRender for Maya 2.03, Windows 8.1, and I'm running it in Maya 2015, SP2.

When I open the Octane plugin through the IPR, I am unable to select menus (i.e. File, Edit, Modify, Create, etc.). This occurs in other windows such as the Hypershade as well. It is consistent every time I use the software.

Here's a video of me clicking around while OctaneRender is open:

Thank you.

Something with your settings or with your Maya installation... Perhaps "Refresh time" is set too fast... Can't say without access to your machine.

Okay, thank you. I did delete my Maya preferences and re-installed Maya because of this problem. Deleting Octane fixed the issue so I think you're right that it's with my settings. My Refresh Time is at 100ms so I don't think that's it. I'm now setting my Render priority to 'High.' It's working so far - I'll let you know what happens. Thanks again.
