  • Premiere Pro 2.0 Crashes when I use the timeline – is it cuz of my new GeForce 6600?

    Posted by Quantumbalance on October 11, 2006 at 7:27 pm

    Hey Guys, I haven’t been able to find an answer for this yet. As you can guess it is frustrating. Premiere Pro 1.5 worked well and I had no trouble.

    I have since upgraded to 2.0 and captured a lot of footage, no problem. But then I started editing on the timeline, you know, like normal, and experience frequent blackscreens that come back within a few seconds, temporary system hangs and all out freezes where the computer just completely locks up.

    What is causing this?

    I don’t know a whole lot about hardware but since I stopped using pro 1.5 and got pro 2.0 I did upgrade my graphics card. Let me list my specs. Oh and I am running XP with zone alarm pro and norton 2k6 so I rule out malicious programs.

    ok Intel Pentium 4 2.40 Ghz
    1.00 gig Ram
    Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
    NVIDIA GeForce 6600

    Well thats about it. I dunno the make of the motherboard but. I guess now that I think about it I did change the graphics card.. but.. BLEH.

    So, please help me because I really want to EDIT MY VIDEO!!! Don’t we all? Lol

    Thanks,

    Sam

    My friend said it may have something to do with the fact that i edit off of my slave hard drive and that in 2.0 you have to edit off of your master… is this true?

    You really want to avoid the Slave/Master issue.

    Can you please be more specific? Do you mean that there is some stigma that I shouldnt talk about it on this forum? Or do you mean that yes I should not have the footage on my slave drive. Can you please respond with clarification? I’m gonna search for slave master now on this forum but. I really want to get this dealt with.

    The slave/master relationship for hard drives should be a thing of the past. Drives should be configured (jumpers) to Cable Select and of course be connected with 80 wire cables. Best approach is to have the system drive and a DVD ROM on the primary channel and one or two drives on the secondary.

    The thing that sticks out in your post is Norton…it is evil. Get a priest and get rid of it!

    is article is getting pretty old, but it might be the best explanation for why you want SATA drives. Sorry I was so cryptic. As Mike pointed out, it isn’t the terminology, it is sharing the cable that is the problem. Also avoid thinking that partitioned drives help. They don’t.
