      Hello Everybody,

      I have attached screen shots of my System and Video Card. Would you please look at them and let me know if there is anything that can be done to improve the performance of my computer.

      I have a sketchup file that is about 1MB and I have hard time rotating it around and adding simple things on it. After I open that file for 15 minutes or so, my screen goes black and I have to reboot the computer. I have attahed the sketchup file here, if you would like to play with it.

      Thanks for your time and help.

        What you are encountering here is more a limitation of SU than your computer.

        To put it bluntly, SU doesnt like even remotely high polycounts. The best workaround found so far is to put as much of your model as you can on separate layers.

        In your case this would mean putting all the detailed stuff (houses etc.) on a new layer. You can then turn this layer off until you need to do the final exports/presentation.

        Oh, and just for the record, file size doesnt really play a huge part in how fast models are in SU.
