Rendering Problem in Creo

Rendering Problem in Creo

(OP)
Howdie.

I am having a problem with rendering in Photolux with View Menu > Render Window.  Please see attached image.  All of the surfaces are smooth surfaces but for some reason I get the weird pattern where ever shadows occur.  I have tried adjusting all of the settings in every way possible but the problem does not diminish or change in any way.  It is not affected if I use maximum quality on everything.  THIS ONLY HAPPENS WITH SOFT SHADOWS SET TO ANYTHING OTHER THAN ZERO.  In other words, hard shadows work fine.  No matter how low I set softness, the result is always the same.

I'm probably missing something really simple no doubt, but can't find it.

Many thanks!
