400 series in general are problematic with Softimage. There was some key architecture change that doesn’t sit well. We experienced a lot of blue screens and other issues with the 460 and 480.
The 500 and 600 series seem to be ok.

It seems like it was defaulting to the 470 so I forced physX to use the 680 and haven't had an issue since. — Sent from Mailbox<https://www.dropbox.com/mailbox> for iPhone On Thu, Oct 24, 2013 at 8:09 PM, Chris Chia <softimage...@gmail.com<mailto:softimage...@gmail.com>> wrote: Must be a nvidia issue.

I possibly have solved it (at least it's not crashing). I have 2 nVidia cards & physX was set to auto in the nVidia control panel. I specified my GTX 680 and that seems to have fixed it for now. -Paul On Thu, Oct 24, 2013 at 12:11 PM, Greg Punchatz <g...@janimation.com<mailto:g...@janimation.com>> wrote: Look for an extra environment in the MCP explorer ..MCP>Select>Explore>Enviroments. I have seen a glitch like this many years ago and somehow there were extra simulation environments in the scene for some unknown reason. ________________________________ Greg Punchatz Sr. Creative Director Janimation 214.823.7760<tel:214.823.7760> www.janimation.com<http://www.janimation.com> On 10/24/2013 10:52 AM, olivier jeannel wrote: I was about to say this as well. Save at frame 1. Mute all your viewport before opening. I had the same issue lately with Momentum (Supressing the whole simulation re-made the scene stable) (though, in your case it could be different reasons of course). You could save your icetree in a big compound, delete your environments, save your scene (without any sim) and re-past your compounds in fresh new pointclouds. I just hate when SI does this...
