Premiere CS3 crashes on startup… driving me nuts!

I just recently reformatted my computer and reinstalled CS3.
Everything in the Master Collection worked except for Premiere.
I could see on the splash that it was trying to load VST plugins
(dll files)from FL Studio. Why would it do that? That software
has nothing to do with Premiere.

I ended up uninstalling Premiere,
hiding the FL Studio and VST folders
and reinstalling.

Now it works.

I haven’t tried unhiding those folders yet. (fingers crossed)

I’ve just run into this problem. Premiere Pro cs3 cannot open any project at this point. I haven’t installed a new font in over two months. I did receive a message yesterday when shutting off this computer that a font may have crashed, but I dismissed it and continued to shut down thinking nothing of it. I have no idea which font crashed, and am using the recently installed font quite regularly in a current project. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the tip!!
One of my students came to me with the same problem.
I couldn’t even venture to guess which font was causing it so I just removed them all (minus the ones Windows claimed), and it worked.
I them reinstalled the ones I had and told them to watch out for that problem when installing new ones.

THANK YOU. My Premiere has been crashing FOREVER and I never could find a way to make it work until now. You just saved my career. <3
