What format are all of your images? I've found sometimes= changing format makes it all work.

Also, make sure hyperthreading is turned off in your bios. Y= ou should have only 6 cores showing in your system.

I don't know what the de= al was, but turning off hyperthreading made renders smooth and everything w= as good as gold again.

Good luck!

Good luck.
