Will not render HD

I just started having an really odd issue, I cannot get any figure at subd level 2 or more to render. It will render fine in iray interactive, but in a seperate render window I just get the checkerboard and no image. This just started as I have had no issues prior to yesterday with this even though I only have a 4 gig GPU.

I did some testing, loaded default GF8, tested interactive renderer with only the CPU and then with only the GPU, both worked great and as normal. The I tried a normal render in the seperate window with both GPU and CPU each and both times rendered fine. Then I load a scene with a warrior type GF8 at subd 2 and an 8K HDRI and it rendered fine in the iray interactive preview, but when i started a regular reender window I just got the checkerboard and the image never appeared

looking at the log I assumed their is an issue with my card since it says this

But I can render smaller scenes with GPU only and no issues which I would think would be an issue if there was an issue with the card.

I took the subd level back down to 1 and the scene rendered fine with the GPU only and no errors in the log file

I have deferred updates on so I haven't had any updates installed and I did try 2 different sets of older drivers which didn't help just in case.

Any ideas?
