project file unreadable after HD transfer

[Martin Tiller]

Is it possible that the Drive letter being different is also a possible part of the problem?

When I load a project into PPro 1.5 it indicates the location of the project starting with the drive letter.

I’m more raising the thought for my own benefit and education.

I’ve not seen a drive letter change corrupt, or at least render the project file unusable…only unlink the assets. While it’s a PITN to relink the assets, it still is a far cry from having to redo the project of course…

I still think there’s some other problem,, like trying to load a PPro 1.5.1 project into 1.5 maybe…

Hopefully patrckd will keep us updated so we see what the issue is…

i moved the HDD back to my friend’s computer, and the files work fine. not a glitch in sight.

i still haven’t figured out why the premiere project files don’t load properly on my computer. i made sure to install the exact same version (1.5) on my new computer.

thanks for all the responses, it was enlightening.
