Hi folks,
I'm trying to slag it out with Vista (32-bit) on a quad-core machine with 3.4GB RAM available to C4D & M~R. The problem I'm encountering is that Vista won't just look the other way and let the scene conversion take place if it's at all a complex scene. I'm not talking city blocks of complexity, but something a little bit complicated with a couple dozen materials to convert and so forth. It seems like Vista only wants to let it sit there for something like 30 seconds before it jumps in and tells me that Cinema 4D has "stopped working". At that point, it gives me no mechanism to tell Vista to just quit bothering me about it and I cannot get back to Cinema 4D's interface since the Vista message acts like a modal dialog in front of Cinema 4D's window. I've let it sit that way for a good 30 minutes, but it seems like once Vista interrupts, there's no hope of anything else being able to continuing processing back at the C4D/M~R side of things. This is the most paranoid operating system I have ever encountered but rather than just complain about it, I'm trying to persevere and figure out what work-arounds might be out there. Is there a way to tell Vista to quit watch-dogging my process?
