  MegaPov 0.7 Stretchbits error (Message 1 to 4 of 4)

I set an image to render through the night at home on my 650Mhz Duron on Win98
SE and I got an error message in my render window even though it started
rendering correctly.

I seem to get this only at home when rendering 800 x 600 or more. Does anyone
know what this is?

There is not enough memory (or system ressources, whatever) to display
the image.  The rendering is still going on in the background.  Close
the display window, close a few apps and reopen it it should be fine.

It sometimes happened to me with a 1200*1500 image i was working on a
few months back, but not always...

I guess it has something to do with the 4 Mb SiS 6326 load of rubbish graphics
card and only 64 Mb RAM as no other apps were running. Except, maybe the system
tray...

Thanks

I also know this phenomen. It always appears, when I open the
InternetExplorer or OutlookExpress while rendering.
I have 224 MBram , therefore I think its a megapov topic.
Mostly the pic reappears when closing IE, but not always.
Then I have to wait until the picture is finished. Then the picture
always reappears, even if IE is open.
