Bryce has such a bad rendering system, i remember Chloe sending me a picture to render and the thing nearly took forever, the finalized picture looked complex but it would have taken something like 30 seconds with Cinema 4d or 3ds max 7 rather than 3 hours.

Originally posted by Psygnosis I got partions so don't really need to backup, but the funny thing is that i just formatted 2 weeks or so ago and installed a fresh copy of Windows. The process of formatting is a fucking bitch, not the formatting really.. but the installing of drivers, the Network setup and such and such.. (yes im lazy )

after your next reinstall of windows and various drivers, get a ghosting program and image your pc before you start piling on the shit.

then next time if you have any issues just use the image cds and reinstall everything. saves you the hassle.

I heard that this problem is common, i just hope that it is a virus and not hardware problems, but i kind of doubt its the latter.

what pc do you have btw?

You know the weird thing was when i used MSN last night and closed it, after 20 minutes i noticed my computer being slow again so i went to task manager and it showed MSN which wasn't even runnning or even in the side thing was apparently taking 50% of the cpu.. what the.

so i ended the process in the task manager and it went back to normal.. dun understand

thats not a virus, just poor programming

As you are running 2 partitions, you should just keep a ghost image on your second, you can have your system good as new in 5 mins, drivers software and all.
