Hello,

I have a new bug since the last release (I didn't change my drivers), the rendering of a sequence stops at a certain frame, I can cancel or pause the render but I can't do anything else, I have to hard quit 3ds Max.

When I relaunch 3ds Max, I have an error telling me that I have no active GPU, please see the screenshot and the Octane log.

I have to restart my computer to make it work again.

It happens on old and new scenes, sometimes after hours of renderings, sometime after 20 min

Hi remKa,
Was out-of-core turned on or off?

Default setting, ON I guess, should I turn it off ?

What's odd is that it's happening since the last release

Hi remKa,
out-of-core on is ok. Did you notice if the driver crashes happen much later in lighter scenes and earlier in really heavy ones?

Not really, that's pretty random

Hi remKa,
Could you run these two lines in PowerShell as an administrator, then restart Windows and run a test?

reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers" /v TdrDelay /t REG_DWORD /d 60 /f
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers" /v TdrDdiDelay /t REG_DWORD /d 60 /f

Try installing this driver:
581.57-desktop-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql

Since all 590.00+ drivers are very buggy.
