Activity Forums VEGAS Pro Installation Problem – Media Manager

  • Installation Problem – Media Manager

    Posted by Paul Berliner on June 8, 2005 at 10:13 am

    I’m trying to instal v6.0b and when the install gets to “Microsoft SQL….” the installation stops. I can run the new version of Vegas just fine (I think) but when I launch Vegas I get an error message about media security and unable to load media manager, etc. I turned the media manager off but still get an error message when I initially boot up my computer.

    Any ideas as to what’s going on?

    Thanks in advance.

    Had the same problem. Ran install again (did not uninstall) and all went well.

    Had the same problem here with V6 on WinXp Pro Sp1. Sony state that SP1 is the minimum required on XP. I finally got it installed with Microsoft SQL working but the outcome was a pretty unstable V6. It would hang the second I tried to use Media Manager. Bit the bullet and installed SP2 and the latest patches for Net Framework then reinstalled V6. Went smoothly and no problems since… Well not with V6 working but compared to V5 check out my post ‘V5 v V6 performance… go figure?’

    I had a similar problem at first. I did a Microsoft Office repair install, and then uninstalled and reinstalled Vegas. It went fine. There was some SQL file in my system that apparently was corrupt. Once it was replaced the Media Manager install (and SQL install) worked like a charm.
