Rendering crashes computer

Recommended Posts

So I have used V.18 for a long time. On my older Vista system(Never had a problem) But I switched many months ago to using my Windows 10 cpu.

 

Suddenly this week, everytime I render, my computer cuts off randomly.

 

This has begun to repeat over and over. I don't have time to do any R&D.

 

Has anyone else had this issue on Windows 10? or V18?

The more I think about this the more I think something is overheating.

 

AM v18 certainly hasn't changed recently.

 

It might be a part starting to fail but the symptoms sound like something isn't getting cooled right. An accumulation of dust like this might impede the cooling enough to cause a failure. I didn't see this until i took off the fan.

Or.... maybe a fan has just plain failed? A computer can limp along with incomplete cooling until it has to do real work and then the lack of full cooling causes a shut down.
