Activity Forums VEGAS Pro Not Responding

  • Not Responding

    Posted by Gordon Nicol on January 13, 2006 at 3:35 pm

    Recently, when I launch Vegas, it freezes and I get a “not responding” message.
    I have to launch it about four times before it will settle down and open properly. It takes quite a bit of time to get the frozen version to end and then relaunch, so this is becoming quite a nuisance.
    Any ideas what might cause this?
    Thanks.

    Do you happen to have a “WowExec” running? Sometimes 16bit drivers (like for a scanner) can cause this. Search around for problems with “Twain”.

    Thanks for your reply Edward.
    I do have a scanner but the software program isn’t running.

    FWIW: I had a similar problem lately that started when I connected my camcorder to capture clips and when the Windows “what do you want to do with this program?” opened it had an option to capture with Vegas. I always use the external program from inside Vegas but this time selected the Windows option and when my project went to start it kept freezing where it had to look for a certain clip(even though I did no actual capturing at the time). After changing the capture selection back to external 3rd party or whatever it’s called, the lockups ended. UJ

    Recently, when you open a project file, it adds dots when the frame is slow then it freezes and you get a “not responding” message.
    You have to restart it before it will settle down and open properly.
