Lock-up EVERY time.
Here are the specs to my machine:
Dell Studio XPS 435T
Intel Core i7 CPU
12GB RAM
64-bit
NVIDIA GForce GTS 240I’m fine when using Adobe After Effects. It works great. But when I try
to edit ANYTHING in Premiere Pro, it locks up within the first 3 minutes of working. It usually happens when I go to put an effect on the timeline.I have tried everything and I just cannot figure out how to get this thing to run smoothly. I make sure all my media files are on the other partitioned drive. I make sure to close all other programs. I don’t know what else to do.
My 8-cores barely blip when I’m using the program, so I don’t think it’s a matter of taxing the system.
Any help would be a godsend.

Hi Gerry,
What is your hard drive setup? All video clips should go to a separate physical drive, not on C: or a “partition” of C.
What video format are you working with, and what is the Premiere project preset you are using?
Is this CS5?

Hi Jeff-
I was working with AVCHD and .mts files. I rendered them down to various lower non-HD formats, thinking that might help. I rendered them as windows media, avi, QT, all still locked up.
I am using Adobe CS4.
Thanks for any advice.

Gerry,
Click on my name and follow my links on crashes. I had the same problem as you.
All problems went away once I changed my video card to one of the approved cards.
I have not had a lock up since.
Rick
