Can anyone help me with HD lockup problems. I have and Amiga3000 with a GVP A4000/3000 G-Force 040-40mhz with 16mb's on the board and 16mb's on the 3000 motherboard for a total of 32mbs. What happens is that I can render Imagine frames without the accelerator but when I put the accelerator in it will lock up after about 3 or 4 frames. Most of the time the harddrive will fix itself from being locked, but sometimes it will cause a hd sector error and I have to use DiskSalv to fix it. And, if I get real unlucky I have to reformat my harddrive. If I'm not trying to render, then the accelerator with work great for awhile and then as i'm using the amiga, it will occassionally and sporatically lock. And I'll have to reboot and maybe fixx my harddrive if its messed up. Does anyone have any ideas or is anyone having the same problem? Later, Robert
