Rendering "Not responding"

Rhino is giving me trouble. I am trying to render my file and it is not letting me. At first I thought maybe it was because it’s a big model. But then I tried a smaller one, and I get the same results. I need to do this for a project due tomorrow (Friday). I’m not sure what to do, I had been rendering earlier today without a problem. When I hit the “R” for render (Im using Vray) – It just hangs there. Then I get the “Not responding” notice on the bar on top. Even when I try using regular renderer it yields the same results. Please, any help is appreciated. (I also removed all materials to see if that was the case…but didn’t help).

It can be a bad object, have you checked for that?
Type selbad and hit enter.

You can also start another Rhino and testrender an empty scene, then copy-paste one object at a time and do a new testrender after each object until you find what’s causes it. It can also be a complex material.
And of course, if it fails at the empty dcene you’ll now it’s the software.
Good luck!

Check out this video. I made it for my class, since we have these kinds of problems fairly often.
