Crush during render

[Jurek]

Hi,
Ufff... sunny and hot is here. No... I have got right cooler (Bequiet Pure Rock), Ram(36GB) and still the same problem: starting render (simple scene) and after 1 minute... black screen. I have to reboot again and so no reports, sorry.
All SP's from Autodesk installed.
So what to do guys???
Best,
Jurek

What Corona version you're using? Can you provide minidump? Please take a read this guide: https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000524006

Corona 1.6 Hotfix 2

ok

Did you check a different app that stresses the PC (Cinebench etc.) to see if it's really related to Corona? This sounds more like a hardware problem to be honest...

Yes, if it really crashes your computer (not only the application) then you have a hardware or driver problem. Can be everything: heat, power supply, bad memory. It's not an application issue then.


Good Luck

From your description it seems that you have your CPU overclocked. Can you try setting CPU frequency and voltage to their base value to see if that fixes your problem?

Also I had similar problem recently. After a Windows update my system started crashing when under heavy load (no overclocking though) and I got that fixed by reinstalling GPU drivers from nvidia.

Hi,
Thanks for all answers.
Still have the same problem, but fortunetly other rendering engines working... :)
So this is not hardware, not frequency or CPU voltage and memory. PC is not overclocked too.
All updates from Win10 and Max17 Nvidia are fresh and good.

I will return to this issue in next days...
Thanks,
Jurek

Problem solved.
Max 2017 deinstalation and 2018v. install was this, what helped me sleep in the night. Finally I may return to my prefered Corona rendering software.
