I was perfectly happy running Resolve 14 on 6 year old hardware...until my motherboard died. Which meant I also needed to replace my processor and RAM because mine aren't compatible with new boards. That much new gear probably requires a clean Windows installation to avoid driver conflicts...so I reformatted and repartitioned my SSD, installed Windows 10, installed mobo drivers, updated Windows 10, installed the latest GeForce driver, and installed Resolve 14.3.0.014.
Resolve launches and is usable for a couple minutes at a time, but it's not stable. I get "DaVinci Resolve has stopped working" and then the program closes. Task Manager looks fine the entire time - CPU, RAM, and GPU all stay well below 20% the entire time.
Opening Resolve takes 7 seconds, which is about the same speed as with my previous hardware. Once I've got my project open, I can click around the timeline, make cuts, move clips around on the timeline (sometimes clicking and dragging, often cutting and pasting), and I can hit spacebar to play both audio and video.
Resolve is the only thing running usually, but sometimes Google Chrome is on my second monitor.
Here is my current system.
Windows 10 Pro x64, version 1709, build 16299.192
Resolve 14.3.0.014
Nvidia GTX 670, 2 GB GDDR5, Kepler 3.0 CUDA architecture, driver GeForce 390.77 dated Jan 2018
Intel i5-8600K
32 GB DDR4 3000 MHz (2x 16 GB)
Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Gaming Wifi mobo
I previously used same graphics card, but with an Intel i5-3570K processor and only 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz (2x 4 GB) on a Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H, and had zero complaints with Resolve. It worked smoothly during editing, playback, and I just didn't touch the computer while it was rendering.
After the last crash, I launched Resolve again, noticed my latest changes were not saved even though I habitually press Ctrl+S every 60 seconds, and used the Help menu to make a log zip on my desktop.
Would someone please let me know if they've had similar problems, or if they can see anything in the log that might explain what's going on? I searched the forum (which is how I found out about the logs), and I tried looking at the logs myself, but I don't really understand what I'm reading.
Thanks so much for your guidance!
