Is anybody else having issues with random crashing in PD8? I also had the PC blue screen while running only PD8, something it has never done in over a year of hard use.

Vista Ultimate 32 bit, AMD Phenom X4, 4GB memory.

Any guidance would be appreciated. mkh productions

I will see what I can pull together this evening. The blue screen could have been a result of overclocking, but this is the first time it has happened. I can set the CPU back to stock speeds to rule that out as a contributing factor.

I looked at the other thread you referenced, that seems like a work in progress rather than an answer. mkh productions

I "un" overclocked the cpu back to 2.6Ghtz. So far, every time I burn a disk, it gets further into the burn before it fails with a "Burning stopped responding" or something like that. Right now I'm 78% through a render/burn, furthest I've gotten so far.

I disabled shadow files, maybe that is significant?
