Hi,
I'm having similar problems getting the Ray-tracer engine to work in AE CS6. Each time I try to enable it and turn a layer into a 3D layer, I get the following errors:
and
I am running on the following specs:
Win7 x64
AE CS6
i7-990X (stock speed)
24GB RAM
GTX580 (1536MB, Driver: 296.10)
Fast Draft: Available
Texture Memory: 601.00 MB
Ray-tracing: GPU
OpenGL

Version: 3.0.0
Total Memory: 1.45 GB
Shader Model: 4.0 or later

Right, here we go!
I got mine to work with a GTX580 on win7 x64 by changing the Timeout Detection and Recovery of GPUs in the Windows registry. By changing it from 2 seconds recovery to 10, the Nvidia driver will get enough time to respond before crashing!
I do realize that this is probably not the "correct" way of taking care of the problem but seems to be working fine for now. If anyone else would like to try, please make a backup of you registry before changing any values!
What did I do? I set the value for object MaxObjectNumber to 10 in the following folder: HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\VIDEO
After that, launch AE and everything works fine (for me)

SUCCESS! I don't know if it will help you guys track down cause of this bug, but my Mac going to sleep causes this 5070 :: 0 error to happen EVERY time. On a long render, my Mac was going to sleep. When I woke it up I would always get this error. I changed my Mac Pro (model 5,1 / 32 GB RAM / nVidia Quadro 4000) Energy saver to "Never" sleep and I haven't had the error since. I still have my screens sleep, but not my Mac. Yay! I have tested many long Raytracing renders since and no crashes.
I can't believe how awesome the raytracer is. Check out the attached. This is all After Effects

It worked fine for a few days, until I had to do some work on another project, which is strictly 2D. Once I switched back to my Ray-trace project it does not work any more, giving me the same problem as before (5070 :: 0) and my previous method of getting it to work is not working anymore...

Interesting.... I just downloaded the latest Geforce drivers from Nvidia (301.42 WHQL) for Win7x64 and GTX580. I did not bother to uninstall old driver first, but updated the drivers using the Express Install option. After installing the drivers I tried the Ray trace again, but this time nvllkdm.sys (I think...) caused a BSOD and I had to reboot my computer. Upon restart, I again launched my project and lo and behold, everything worked fine!
I have tried rebooting a couple of times and switched between projects, and... it seems to be working. Not sure for how long, but for now it's working!| -
