I am currently suffering from rendering animated work from Houdini. I constantly receive “OpenGL Fatal Error” message when I click mantra rendering. I am currently using XPS17 L702x laptop with 1GB graphics card.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem and will a new laptop to solve this?
Or can I transfer my animation into a different software (ie : cinema 4d/ Maya) so that I could still render an animation without having upgrading my laptop into 3GB graphics card?
Is gtx 960m 2gbRAM good enough for Houdini Animation render?

You should first ensure, that your laptop has no optimus/minimus, WTH that “automatic” switching of onboard/onchip and dedicated graphics is called. That seems to never work.
Second I'd suggest to upgrade your NVIDIA drivers. It should run then.
Also have a look in “Houdini Menu” ->Help ->About Houdini and then click on “Show details”. That should help you narrow your search.
I am torturing my Laptop with a GTX850M/2GB all day long, so should be it in your case too.

If you can't script/program it, it's no good at all !

Thanks for your suggestion and I am trying to work on it now. May I know how can I do this? “ no optimus/minimus, WTH that ”automatic“ switching of onboard/onchip and dedicated graphics is called” Where can I set optimus / minimus and switch of the automatic onboard/onchip?
