Dramatic Loss in processing power in sony vegas overnight?
Hey guys, I have a i7 quad core processor with 8 gigs of ram. Ive been editing with vegas pro 10 for months with no problem. Sometime within the last 3 days, Vegas has gotten dramatically slower. Before hand I could have smooth preview playback at half res, now it is laggy and choppy even at a quarter playback. Rendering out a video which would take 15 minutes before now takes over an hour. It’s like I lost processing power or something? I have tried restarting my computer, closing all other apps, I only had a system restore back to like 2 days, I’m not sure if the problem started happening then or not. Even with a new project and playing one single clip, with no effects has laggy playback. I don’t know what happened. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Try Uninstalling Vegas, then clean up your system
and registry (i use CCleaner for this, free handy little bugger).

Restart your system then reinstall Vegas.
Not a guarantee things will be back to normal, but its worth
a long shot.
I presume its Vegas 11 you have?Steve Rhoden

CPU Throttling?
Check CPU info while Vegas running with CPU-Z.
Check your CPU Cooler and Heatsink. -
Hey guys
thanks for your advice. I figured it out. Somehow, the default track properties got selected. So whenever a new track was created about 5 effects were automatically added to the track without me realizing it. So it was tying to process all of that at once. I restored it back to normal and everything is up and running. Thanks for your help!
