Sometimes when I hit "render" the upped half of the frame remains pitch black. why this happens and how to evade it?

Does it vary between renders of the same scene, from the same camera, or is it variable between scenes or camera moves within a scene? If the latter my suspicion would be you have a light, with Render Emitter set to On and a shape assigned.

The same scene, I put my render options to both CPU and GPU and hope this will not appear more (my videocard is only 2 GB - maybe the lack of memory was the reason)
