Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hi, I have just build a new computer with windows 8.1 installed + SketchUp and Standalone Maxwell plugin. When rendering an image I cannot save the image, if I try the machine just completely freezes and maxwell is not responding. On my old system with windows 7 and SketchUp 2013 with the same plugin it works flawless. What could be the problem? Also rendering an image seems to take much longer time compared to an 4 year older system

Computer:

MSI Z87 motherboard socket 1150
i5 4770k
16GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 760
Samsung 840 EVO 256GB SSD

Are you the same person who just emailed me? If so, please follow the instructions I sent and let me know if they help. In short, Maxwell will use the resources you allocate to it (Maxwell FIRE > Settings > Threads), for as long as you allow it to render (Maxwell FIRE > Settings > Sampling Level).
