I found your post really interesting, and i would like to know if I should install 3dsMax as a trial for my render node, if i am not using backburner? Those computers will run Max in render mode only... I just wanna know if I have to install my license of 3dsMax that I bought to my render nodes, or should I install the nodes in trial only to prevent license conflict? Because I heard that if i dont need GUI interface to render, i just have to send a command line job of 3dsMax to the render node, and the trial will never "expires".... Is it true? Hi!

Nevertheless, I must admit that I had issues with some viruses, but I hope I won't have again, because I bought a very good antivirus. We can't be fully protected unfortunately, but it's good that we can reinstall Windows every time we want. These steps are very important for a clean computer.

The frequency depends on how intensely you use the PC. To be fully protected against threats, and to keep up the performance of your PC, we recommend a checkup once every six months. Thanks!
