    Hi guys,

    Hoping to figure out if anyone is able to run Autodesk Maya on your M6400 (or other Quadro 3700 laptop) without crashes.

    Mine crashes consistently within max. 45 minutes or so from opening my scene and beginning to work... Are other people getting it stable? Are other people getting crashes?

    I'm getting a blanked screen and an nvidia driver crash, followed by a dead Maya. (Not temperature related.)

    Have you tried other Quadro drivers for your card? It sounds like a driver issue (there used to be like a whole "nvlddmkm has stopped responding and has successfully recovered" fiasco for like 6+ months after Vista was released.)

    Dell only has one driver available. In this thread I'm trying to gauge if I am the only one getting this problem (possible hardware issue) or if it is on multiple peoples' systems (drivers or something.)

    I'm going to try some hacked drivers and see if I can get anything to work.
