You haven’t mentioned your system specs, and whether or not you are editing rendered clips.

2.0 Adobe Prem. on Dell 2.8 Ghz and 3 GB of Ram, 500 Hard Drive have a 7Nvida Geforce 7300, thinking of upgrading to 512?
It is rendered.
Thanks!Mark

For HD, memory will not do much about speed, but the CPU will take most of the load. A dual core is probably going to be needed as part of the upgrade to get a stable machine. Do a Ctrl Alt Del > Performance, and I’m sure you’ll see your CPU stuck at 100%.
Good luck,

Hi Vince, Thank you for the info.
So you are saying I need a dual performance CPU?
Will check it out and let you know.Mark

HiVince, It appears to have plenty of space on the CPU.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!Mark

It seems now that I try to burn a DVD it locks up at 37.15% the last three times, or a error message comes up?

The DVD error might be something else, or it might not…. BTW, by HD, do you mean HDV, or True HD ?
You also want to look at the CPU load when you are editing. Adobe does list a dual Intel Xeon 2.8 as system requirement for HD. HDV might not be as CPU hungry, but a dual core is really going to be needed as well.
Could you post the error message when you see it again ? And are you just down converting to SD on export? If so, I would recommend down converting to SD before editing (yep a little late now 😉 PP2 does a pretty poor job at it, and then your speed will of course drastically improve.

Hi Vince, The system locked up at 37.15% again.
Been editing my Sony FX1 1080 camara for Hi Def editing.
Everything was working fine untill the last 1% of the hour and half movie.
Was just trying to make a down coversion to DVD to watch it then make a dub to tape to capture it back to 1080, did the first half hour to tape ok, but expierincing problems with the second hour.
Been editing off line so do not have error message.
Thanks again for all youtr input!Mark

Do you really only have one hard drive? If so, you might get better performance with two drives, one for the system and programs, and the second to put your capture clips on (sorry, but you probably knew that). I was just thinking of any possibility, that might help.
