I have one of the new 24bit speedstars and the panacea drivers that shipped with it. My problem is when ever I render anything and then go to the materials editor my system reboots. Any other comments would be appreciated. Thanks! Stephen

I can almost guarantee that the Panacea drivers that Diamond Shipped were the old ones for 3DSr1. You'll need to get the new 3DSr2 drivers when they are ready. -MM

Dear Stephen, If you are using 3D Studio rel. 2.0, then you will indeed need an upgrade for the driver you are using. If you are using 3D Studio rel. 1, then the Materials Editor can only be used in 256 color mode. In other words, you need to make sure your DLDSETUP is for 256 colors, not 16 or 32k (if your board has a DAC chip on it). If you need an upgrade, please e-mail to me and I will see about the upgrade and what you need to do to get it. My e-mail is 70540,1257. Regards, Janet Paulovich – PANACEA
