Hi All,

I have been having frequent visits from the "Guru" recently when I am
rendering animations in LW 3.1. The problem is I set up a scene and start
rendering, every thing is fine for the first 60 - 100 frames, but then
after a few hours my system crashes and I get "Guru Meditation" and have
to reset the computer. This happened to me about 5 times in a 300 frame
animation. It almost seems like my amiga gets tired of computing numbers
after a while and bombs out???

I am using the following system:
Amiga 2000HD
2 Megs Chip Ram
11 Megs fast ram
GVP 030 '25Mhz board
Toaster 3.1
Sanyo 950

If anyone has any ideas on how to ward off these frequent Guru visits
please let me know.

Thanks,
Dan Nessel
