Sound not aligned!!!
Ok, I have a clip that is about 50 min long on the timeline. I import that long clip onto the timeline and it won’t play it in sync with the sound. The longer into the clip I go the worse it gets. I exported the timeline as an AVI and it’s still off. I know the sound on the original captured video isn’t off because when played in wmp or other apps it works fine on several computers. But the second I import it into Premiere 1.0 it gets all off. What’s wrong? Thanks.

Not knowing your exact setup, it would appear that your system is not up to Par. Premiere Pro 1.0 does not loose audio sync unless the system bus speeds cannot keep up the required bandwidth required to play the clip in question. If you have a separate hard drive in addition to your system drive, you might try to set up your scratch drives pointing to that drive. All of your media should be on that drive. That drive should also be either recently formatted, or defragged. Premiere will by default try and play the clip in question at the default settings (typically dv) 720 x 480 pixel resolution. Those settings are considerably higher than required by other apps that use media player etc., which might cause the loss of sync. It gets worse on the play down, because you are dropping video frames. You can usually tell this because video will be ahead of audio.
