3ds Max 2014 constantly freezing - hardware related?


Recommended Posts

Since moving to my new computer 3ds Max 2014 is constantly freezing for up to 10 secs at a time, and i mean all day long, restarting the computer has little to no bearing. There will be periods where its okay for a while (couple of hours) but it's constantly doing it. It never happened on my previous machine which used the same video card.

 

my machine is Intel i7 5930k 3.5GHz, 32Gb RAM, NVidea GTX680...

 

any ideas/suggestions? is the card a bit old now and would i be best to upgrade?

Hey Luke

Just some thoughts:

Has your network setup changed (if you have one)? I'm wondering if Max is trying to look for assets on paths that don't exist anymore

 

Does the freeze happen when doing any viewport related operations - zooming etc? Does it freeze when opening the material editor?
