        Ta, Rich. I downloaded the Thea render "Detailed Interior" scene to test and frankly the textures vanish once added to a surface. I think I must be on some seriously goo/bad acid drops, probably the green/lime ones.......

              That error is completely weird because a 3080 has 10GB of VRAM

              Your machine is the most delicate device I've encountered. I'd never shop wherever you got that again. Unless you like to feel punished?

              It has enough grunt to render relatively fast. Not blazing fast but definitely not hours and hours for straight forward interior scenes.

              I don't think the issue is you. I think the device might be suffering from little gremlins or there some software trying mange things when you should just be able work away.

                The pc shut down just after re running that test. Will not boot at all, shows the chillblast splash screen and freezes.

                Luckily enough the old pc which also would not boot, did.

                Ordered asda bits so did A job.

                No rendering until chillblast get their fingers out.

                  Attached the monitor to the onboard graphics outlet and the pc booted without issues. For me this suyggests a graphic card issue, any other idea's?

                    Tried a Rayscaper render, selected GPU, got this is around 4m 45s. No, I cannot see how the graphics card can do this. Chillblast are, quiet and not returning calls.

                              Gone through various check, chkdsk etc. Now having to clean install sketchup, again.

                              It does get a bit tedious.

                                  This time around the whole disk checking system ran through, took over an hour and a half.

                                  No idea if it found/fixed anything but no doubt going through the reinstall process with stress anything bent already.

                                  I also had a response from someone claiming to be a manager of the 'customer service team'. He was asking me to tell him what the problem with the operators is so I told him no punches pulled, pointing out the issue and where the law requires them to act. Also mention of publicity should changes not be made. No idea where this is going but it's in the air tonight. Perhaps I had too much 'bastard factor' in my tea.

                                  I believe that when these people say they are going to do something they should, rather than buggering off and ignoring the issue.

                                  Oh well, off to collect the latest offering from the cat, she seems spatially challenged and often misses the litter tray. Thanks Moggy.

                                    Shot in the dark but try from a CMD prompt...

                                    sfc /scannow

                                    Let that run through.

                                    Then.

                                            It went through eventually and I have now reinstalled sketchup minus any plugins so far. Waiting to see what happens next. Such fun this computing lark, never a dull moment at all...
