The problem may be that you’re trying to render a non-standard DVD. DVDs don’t support HD, so when you go to playback in that projector it’s hard to say what it might do.
Really, to do it right, you need to film in HDV, edit in HDV, but then render to a DVD template that you’ve manually changed the output from 4:3 to 16:9. This will result in a standard widescreen DVD that the projector should playback normally.

Just ignore it. It’s there strictly for convenience and doesn’t affect the editing at all. The question isn’t so much “How can I make it act like another app that doesn’t highlight” but rather: “Why would you want to?”.
Anyway, as you’ve been told, you can turn it off. But I wouldn’t recommend doing that. Try it; you might find it useful eventually.

Sounds bizarre. Do you have a screenshot?

I’m having no issues with codecs. But I never use xvid around Vegas. On the rare occasion I must encode something to xvid, I’d probably use a third party converter.
-
I am. Win7 64 bit home premium. But I first tried editing xvid in Vegas years ago and it’s never worked for me in any version.
-
I just tried dropping an xvid .avi on Vegas 9 and I don’t get any video at all. So you’re ahead of the game. It would be nice if Vegas edited xvids.

Oh wait. I think I misinterpreted your post. You said you restored a disk image created with Win7? Sorry, but unless you specifically customized that function it didn’t back up your entire C drive. So it’s pretty much useless.
-
If you could render fine yesterday, but can’t render today, then any disk image older than yesterday should restore the rendering function.
Again, don’t waste a lot of effort, especially if this is a work machine. Just reinstall Windows and get back to work.

I didn’t even know Vegas would render to Xvid? But your question is really confusing; there are so many steps there’s really no way to know where you may have gone wrong. Probably with the encode to xvid, but who knows.

It sure does sound like something important got uninstalled along with those programs. That’s not supposed to happen. Anyway, just restore the last disk image you have. If you don’t have a recent one (shame on you!), then try system restore.
Don’t waste a lot of time on this. Reinstalling Windows will often be faster.
