So I’ve tried Vegas 12 on two computers with the same issues. VIDEO of issue!
I have been having the same problem for weeks now, every aspect of Vegas is going extremely slow. I installed Vegas on a brand new laptop with 8gb of RAM and an i7 processor. GPU acceleration on and off, with up to 6000mb of ram for preview. Nothing worked.

Here is a video of my problem.

Another software or something installed is maybe conflicting
with Vegas for it to be behaving so dramatic. Or even a Virus.

1/- Matched Media: Does your Project Settings Match your Media? BTW what is the format your Media?
2/- When you say:-
[Tyler Kemp] ” GPU . . . . with up to 6000mb of ram for preview.”What do you mean you have 6000mb available? Have you set aside this amount for Build RAM previewing? Why are you mentioning this figure?
3/-Start Up Message: Why do you get asked how you wish to use Vegas? Admin or not? I don’t?
4/- AWOL Media: You have a Project with missing Media. Why? Do try starting a fresh project where Vegas KNOWS where all your Media IS and that the media exists in those folder for Vegas to use.
5/- Drives: Also, are you accessing the Media from the same drive that your system is on? Do you have a 2nd Drive in that Laptop?
6/-My Results: Same Track Motion 4×4 Project; 1920x1080i 25 MXF Media; Auto Preview for Optimum Playback is Preview Half and at Forced BEST I’m getting 17fps. Meaning, it’s working for me.
Cheers

It’s hard to see your screen clearly but it looks to me like you have White Solid Media on the top track which indicates that you are doing compositing/masking across an entire track. If the 4 quadrants in the videos are individual tracks, then you are streaming 4 HD video files from a laptop hard drive that is probably running at 5200RPM, then resizing 4 HD tracks in real-time with with a compositing mask track and possibly FX. That right there is enough turn any video into a slide show.

1) It is AVCHD 3D video, from which I keep only one track.
2) I was just stating there is lots of RAM available for the preview, and it’s still being laggy. If I put it from 5000 to 500, there’s no difference.
3) I have no clue why I get this message. It started doing this one day when I had Vegas 11, and has ever since.
4) The project was copied from my other laptop and is missing a few things, which I replaced.
5) The media is all on my laptop. Before I had issues I have actually made videos from media on an external harddrive, and it lagged, but nothing like this.

The white on top is simply an overlay with a watermark, no effects. I understand in the split screen mode it may be laggy, but it is laggy even when it’s a single video playing.
I have created multiple videos exactly like this, with no issues in the past. Then suddenly it starts behaving like this.

OK, that’s a different story. So the next question is what did you change about your computer? and do you have a backup from before tis started that you can go back to?

The only thing I did even near to the time Vegas started acting up was downloaded a CPU core temp monitor. It worked for about a week before Vegas acted up. I deleted it.
I don’t have or can’t find any restore points that old.

This might sound like an odd suggestion, but try scanning all your systems for a Virus/Infection.

You should be backing your computer up regularly with something like Acronis TrueImage. Don’t rely on Microsoft’s restore points. I wish I could help more but it’s impossible to say what might have changed… but something changed.

So you would suggest taking everything important off my laptop and starting over fresh?
