    It sounds to me like a video or audio plug-in is crashing while being intitialized by the DirectX system. You might try a DirectX plug-in manager, such as DXman: https://www.analogx.com/contents/download/audio/dxman.htm.

    Now, it’s quite possible this will crash, too, but hopefully not. This allows plug-ins to be registered or unregistered — you can effectively turn them on or off without uninstalling.

    Another thing you could try. If you have had a windows automatic update in the last while, you can uninstall the latest updates and see if it restores your Vegas functionality.

    If you wish to try this, go to (on Vista) Control Panel. Programs and Features. Click on “View installed updates.” Then right click and uninstall the lastest update(s) since your problem occured. If the update was the problem, you are now fixed. If not, you can easily enough reinstall the updates.
    This happened to me recently when Vegas stopped loading on “loading sound drivers…” on the the splash screen.

    Second on that one.

    I had a bad install of Vista 64 SP2 that messed me up not that long ago. Rolling the machine back with System Restore solved the problem.
