Help! You're my only hope...

[marvins_dad]

It's now climbed to 6,062,---k Memory usage and flickering between 12-13% CPU usage.
Still hasn't finished opening...or it is locked up and I just don't want to admit it.

[marvins_dad]

On the semi-virgin machine (just loaded Thea and the trial for Skatter)...the same file that is still trying to load on my machine - loads in seconds and has only gotten up to 589,292k memory usage with 0% CPU currently (because it's not loading I would guess).

What oddness....anyone have any ideas what is going on?

[marvins_dad]

Finally Opened! 1 hour later!
5,573,180K w/ 0% CPU...this sounds high in comparison.

Then I hit Render for Thea Render and it Bugsplatted...
Not a good couple days in SketchUp land for me.

Here are a couple shots of the model to show what I am working with...

I am not an expert, but this looks like data transfer problem, which means it is connected with HDD, RAM and maybe GPU memory. So, I would check difference between two systems. It would be best to post your hardware profiles here. This is a good tool for that http://www.hwinfo.com/

Running it now.

I finally got it open again and purged then "Fix Problems" and got this...

And...it crashed again...damnit!

Will see if I can get an old version to work while trying to bring that one back up.
I had purged out all the unused Skatter setups and purged and fixed the file...still bugsplatted.

Thanks! Was able to rule one plug-in out of the problem that I am having.

[srx]

Wow!
1 The hardware is more than enough...
2 Will have to remove all the plugins, than add them one by one to find the cause..Just to remind you

[marvins_dad]

The issue popped up again recently.
Found it to be a Skatter issue after all.
I could pull it up on a machine without Skatter plug in installed with ease...would hang forever on my machines that had Skatter installed.
Went in and purged/deleted the Skatter reference on the non-Skatter machine....saved then opened in my Skatter machine (no problem) - then redefined the Skatter perimeters...and works like a charm.

Unsure what the hang up is and once redefined the problem hasn't occurred again.
