July 5, 2005 at 3:14 pmMost of us have that same problem here at the our studio. We haven’t pin-pointed the issue and Adobe tech support was absolutely no help. We have the problem with all diffferent types of video cards, although they are all NVidia Chipset of some variety, but I dont think its a video problem. The only thing that seems to fix it is closing afx and re-opening. If anybody can shed some more light on this problem I would worship the ground that you walk on.
You’re not alone.

July 5, 2005 at 9:13 pmI’ve had the same problem as you, and Adobe tech support made some suggestions, but didn’t have anything specific to do, other than to add RAM, and to make sure to get a video card that is on the Adobe supported list.
We brought our RAM up to the 2GB level, and added an NVIDEA graphics card, neither of which seemed to do the trick. One thing that has seemed to work is to change my preference settings for Memory and Cache. I set the Maximum Memory Usage to 80%, and my Maximum RAM Cache size to 80% as well. This has seemed to do the trick for now.

It did the trick until I started a new project I’m working on, and did about 3 or 4 drags and drops. Problem is now back. Sorry for getting your hopes up with the cache idea. Adobe has GOT to do something about this!
