Hi Josef,
two questions: how large are you rendering, and do the crashes happen when you are adjusting controls or starting a render?
It's unlikely to be a memory problem unless you're rendering more than about 15000 pixels on a side. Jux is a 32bit program and can use all available memory (within 2GB for 32bit Windows, or about 3.5GB for 64bit Windows depending on whether the GPU uses shared memory, etc, but the practical limits are less due to some fragmentation.)
Some people have experienced problems with freezes while adjusting controls, but this has mostly been fixed or reduced in the latest versions.
The complexity of color or lighting options should not generally be a factor but there could be some combination that is causing problems for you. With some formulas there may be settings that can cause a crash. If anything is repeatable then I'm interested in parameters to try to fix it, otherwise any details may be helpful.
Regards,
Garth
