OK, where is your pre-rendered files folder? Do you keep it on C:? Or on E:?

Prerendered files folder is on E:. Nothing is on C: except for the OS and applications.

OK, so Vegas gives me a default of Prerendered Files Folder:

C:UsersMyPCNameAppDataLocalSonyVegasPro9.0

I should create a new directory:

D:Vegas Prerendered Files Folder

And change thd default Prerendered Files Folder location?

Yes, just create a new folder where you want it and point to it.

Hi John.

>>In fact, I can’t help but notice that a fair amount of people having trouble seems to be the ones with the shiny new i7 PC’s. (This is why i haven’t bought one yet, I’m not convinced that hyperthreading and multi-core are really working stable together)

So the time to upgrade would be when they finally come out with a true eight-core system (in which hyperthreading could be turned off)?

Or may I please ask, are there accepted rules for upgrading?

I know I do not need to say this, but thank you.

I think you can turn the hyperthreading off on the Core i7’s which is why I read about people doing that to fix certain problems. Unfortunately, the only accepted rule is to wait and see what systems are proving to be stable. I was an early adopter of the Quad Cores and paid over $1000 for my CPU (which sells for about $200 today) and I got lucky. My system is very stable. I haven’t seen a motherboard that accepts two Core i7’s yet (to get 8 cores). All of the Intel dual CPU mobos are Xeon based. 🙁 I assume the CPU’s themselves will become 8 core soon. It never ends; you just have to decide when you think you will get a boost that you can “feel”. For me, that’s probably 8 cores.
