Watchdog Violation

Hi,

I have a not that polygon dense scene, using half of my texture VRAM, and using the R19 Take System to keep track of my takes, cameras, texture scaling and so on. Everything looks in order. But my computer crashes when I´m rendering to PW. It renders approx 25 frames with ease, then it freezes, first Cinema, then after a approx 30s the whole computer crashes and gives me that blue "Watchdog Violation" screen.

Tried a bunch of older drivers, double checked so that Octane Standalone and the plugin are in sync, re-installed Windows. Anyone have any suggestions/solutions? Would it be easier on Octane to split all takes into separate scene-files? Anyone with experience regarding this?

I´m running Windows 10, 4 watercooled 980´s (not Ti, only 4gb VRAM) Standalone 3.07 and plugin 3.07.

Agreed, windows 10 problem. We dealt with this on like 3 computers the last couple months. Good ole windows. "If its not broke, we will break it" something along those lines right?
