Vegas Resource Sucking
Ok I’ve seen this for QUITE some time now – posted before and got no answers maybe this time will be different.
I’m using Vegas 6 – after running/editing/rendering/using Vegas – I will begin to see resources bog down trememdously.
I will see explorer.exe blow up to over 60 and 70% usage – only way to clear up is to restart.
ALWAYS seems to happen – yes – when using Vegas.
Is there a setting somewhere or a reason why this ends up occuring?
and yeah – I’ve scanned completely – do not have any viruses or trojans of any type whatsoever.

What hardware are you running? (ie PIII, P4, AMD, single core, cual core, dual proc, home built, Dell, HP, Intel Mac, etc.)Which version of windows? OS updates/servicepacks? Which versions of .net do you have installed? When was the last time you re-installed windows? Which revision of Vegas 6 do you use? Is it the latest available? How did you deploy the media manager software in to your system? Have you tagged your media for media manager to find it quickly? These are not accusations, but a list of things for you to check if you haven’t already. I am curious to know the answers so I can understand a little better what the full context of your bad experience has been.
Vegas 6 is the first version to include media manager, so there may be an issue/conflict there between media manager and explorer. It could also be an incomplete or incorrect update/servicepack implementation. I noticed strange behavior from XP when I installed .net for the first time, but it never gave me trouble with Vegas, of course Vegas 5 didn’t use media manager. At any rate, I would be more suspicious of explorer than Vegas. I hope that’s helpful, get back to us about your system specs and hopefully we’ll have a solution soon.

Vegas is not the problem – I think it’s that other thing…you know, the media thingie. Is anyone using it???
-
I have media manager disabled in Vegas options. I do not use it.

Un-install it.
-
been there – done that – did the uninstall – reinstall gig.
same thing still happens
-
WAIT – you mean media manager only? Uninstall that?
I’ll give it a try – if that is possible to only uninstall media manager.

Yeah, I uninstalled media manager – I think there were three references to it in XP’s un-install program. Then make sure MM is disabled in Vegas and all should be well. Hope it solved the problem.

Just uninstalled – now let’s see what happens.
This problem has been sporadic for me – but always manages to happen at least once a day requiring me to restart – always after using Vegas anywhere from once to several projects.
So far so good – but I won’t be convinved until I see this problem disappear for several days following ths uninstall.
I’ll report back . . . .
