Rendering produces black images. (Resolved)

Just put DS in my new computer. Now when I render, all I get is blackness.

By this I mean, the render canvas window appears with gray checkerboad while it prepares to render. Then, after it reports that the render canvas was written, that window then shows absolute black.

I used to get this blackness when I accidentally tried to render from a vantage point under the default ground level.

Did the default lighting disappear or something?

More data:

It will show a developing image in the render canvas for a different scene file. That scene file is smaller - much less complex.

But it still produces black screens for the more complex scene file.

Memory problem?

Old computer was CPU rendering only on 8GB system RAM.

New computer is GPU rendering on Quadro K600 with 1GB GPU RAM.

But... It also produces blank black screens if I switch it to CPU rendering, which I assume has access to all 16GB of system RAM.

Did I assume wrong? I don't know. I have no idea what the problem is.

Whoops. My bad. The same scene file does the same thing on my old PC. So the problem is more likely in my scene file, not any of the hardwares here.
