I don't have the simple answer you are looking for but can offer some trouble shooting advice. Start simplifying your prj file one by one to see what it is that is causing your rendering to crash. eg, remove, by hiding, (Display/hide/object) one at a time in your scene untin the thing renders OK. then find out what it is in that object that that causes the render to crash. maping, attributes AXP, flying extraneous faces of infinite length?? I have experienced all these problems. Even corrupted prj file; go to your auto backup prj and rename it to see if it works. Remove any background bitmap/gradient/color. [I have a similar problem with one of my machines won't render bitmaps in the background. All other machines render the prj fine. I'm still trying to figure this one out.] Also, to eliminate the machine, try to render the file on another machine to see if the problem follows the file or stays with the machine. Good luck and keep us posted as to your results.
