Memory/cashe help! Cant render!
Can someone please help me, I dont know how to adjust the settings in memory/cashe preferences.
I have 4 gigs of ram but I cant get any decent RAM previews, or even render!
My footage is 640×480, has been spliced together and spead up. If I select the region to do a preview, even on half or third resolution, it will only preview for maybe a second or two before giving me a memory error and crashing After Effects. Im only trying to render a 4-5 minute video, exporting as a quicktime movie, MPEG-4 compression on medium setting. When I export it says insuffecient memory and stops the render.
I never used to have these issues before when I had 2 gigs of RAM and before rebuilding my computer. What should my memory settings be?I have enabled the cashe memory option on my harddrive in hopes of getting longer previews or renders but it doesnt work.
Any ideas or suggestions? -

My system is a windows pc laptop (xp), 4 gigs of ram (though it only reads 3.25 because Im not on a 32-bit system…I think), Intel Core Duo processor and an NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS video card. Basically a powerful laptop gaming system.
I read the AE Help guide on memory/cashe and went back to the default settings. This atleast allowed me to render a short clip without crashing, but my previews are still horrible. Is there an easy way to determine the optimum memory/cashe settings for my computer?
