Maya freezing up my computer...
 

Everyone once in awhile Maya totally locks up my PC requiring a reboot :(

~Raedius

How much freespace do you have? What are your system specs? Nothin we can do with just "maya freezes"... =|

Its probably my RAM...

I have VERY little RAM (128 MB, go on, laugh :rolleyes:

Looking to get 2 strips of 512 in about a week.

~Raedius

that would be it... Maya needs like 128 mb just to boot up. lol. Definitly would say at least 316... recomend 512.

<-- Uses 128MBs also .. I should upgrade now

Still, it shouldn't freeze the computer, if the RAM runs out it should use the virtual paged memory.

~Raedius

mayb that ran out as well :)
i only have 256 and i occasionally have problems

Um, Nem I have a maximum of 512 MB of virtual memory :p

~Raedius

I get locked up sometimes too and have 384MB of physical RAM and have my virtual memory set to 800-1,000 MB. But I get locked up starting it, think it's more of a "I'm an old computer, leave me alone, go get one of those nice young new computers and let me sleep" sort of problems ;)

LMAO, mine must be Mathusalen then .. LOL

Mine freezes during modelling... Sucks...

Raedius: how much ram can your machine take? I have 1 gig of ram in mine mate, Its well worth it.... also it is so cheap now that its an essential :)

Maya is a resource demon!

what kind of graphics card are you using? i've had problems with older cards that didn't have specific driver support for maya.

That question was probably for the others, but here is my graphics-card (laptop):

ATI Rage Pro
8MB vRAM (max)
