Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Bad Graphics Card?

  • Bad Graphics Card?

    Posted by Kevin Snyder on July 2, 2005 at 3:25 am

    Is it possible for a failing graphics card to make my computer crash, and restart the computer all on its own? Sometimes the computer will keep running, but the signal to the screen goes out, so the monitor just goes into standby mode. Thanks.

    i have serious and permanent problem about control the quality of the final video. i’ve been using adobe premiere for all of my postprod. process. but, i’ve never been met any satisfying result. the final video never look like a video edited by profesional editor. i don’t know where the problems are. my assumption: those were caused by the quality of the editing-software itself. maybe adobe premiere (i’m using premiere 6.5) can’t produce a profesional-look final video. isn’t true?
    i’ve ever watched a final video produced by final cut pro. it’s so profesional-look video. can i produce the same quality like final cut pro final video with premiere? or i should change my editing-software?thanks.

    Hi Kevin,

    Yes, it is possible. XP has become more and more reliable, but a poorly written driver (or hardware failure) can most certainly make a computer hang, produce errors or cause it to crash. After making sure that the card is seated firmly in the AGP (or PCI slot) and updating the video drivers a new card would be the next logical step. If you know someone that can let you borrow one to try that would be ideal.

    PS – I’m assuming that your using XP.
