    Okay….I use CS3 with a windows machine 3.2 gig processing 2 gigs of ram….everything ran perfectly.

    I should have known better in the middle of a project, but I decided to upgrade my video card. Put the new card in and installed all the drivers. Everything seemed fine until I went into premiere. Half my stuff wont play from the timeline….things like .mov files or any clips with “auto levels” or other filters. The audio plays and the play head moves, but the monitor just shows a still image. These all worked before but not now. I uninstalled the card and put the old card back in. Same problem. It’s so bizarre cuz I can scrub all these clips from the timeline and see everything.

    Old card Nvidia geforce 6600GT
    new card Nvidia geforce 8500GT

    can anyone help me?

    Well, I think you go do a system restore and go back to previous settings. Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System restore.

    Best wish,

    Are you using win xp? the 8xxx series cards are DirectX 10, XP uses DirectX 9, When you loaded the drivers for the new card it probably load a newer version of DirectX 9 that has some D3DX 10 dlls to make the card backward compatible with XP, this maybe causing conflicts, or the version of the DirectX 9 update on the card’s CD is a older version, MS has benn regularly releasing newer updates of DirectX 9 because of some compatibility problems, the last release I downloaded was Nov2007.
