Axis / Freezing

Good Day Gents

Have a problem with a retrofit. When Long / heavy code is sent to the nc, the front end freezes. The motion goes on and machine finishes the program, however all screeen, mouse, keyboard are frozen. Any take.?
Funny thing is that the machine can be idle for days without any problem. Running HPz400, Nvidia Videos , Motenc Card.

Hi Peter,

I found this text about gcode file size:

The interpreter and task are carefully written so that the only limit on part program size is disk capacity. The TkEMC and Axis interface both load the program text to display it to the user, though, so RAM becomes a limiting factor. In Axis, because the preview plot is drawn by default, the redraw time also becomes a practical limit on program size. The preview can be turned off in Axis to speed up loading large part programs. In Axis sections of the preview can be turned off using special comments.

thank you.. I just came across a tech note stating to get as far away from nvidia.. ( or to usa the vesa mode.. ) will try to remove some of the features from axis to see if still locks up.. cheers mate.
