Change “Master bus mode:” from Stereo to 5.1 surround -
I’ll assume you have updated your Itunes at some point and that is what caused the problem. You need to roll back to 7.6.2 or older.

What version of Vegas and where did the files originate?

You would be best off using a format that is more standard. FRAPS can put some weird stuff in an .avi container. Stuff the normal video editing world has no clue about.
Matching your project settings to the media being used will also speed it up. As you showed it Vegas has to convert everything from the weird format FRAPS garbage to the 720×480 project Vegas was set for. This all takes time.
P.S. The lag in putting a file on the timeline was not that long, especially coming from an external hard drive that might not have been spooled up.
P.S.S. You might find people more helpful when not running a pirated copy of Vegas.

Basis answer is no. No way to go from Pro to Studio or a current Pro file to an older version of Vegas.

First step get away from xvid as Vegas does not support it or dixv. It may work ok for a while then go totally haywire for no reason. Since Sony has no support for the format then you are up the proverbial creek.
Convert the files you have to a more Vegas friendly format and most of your problems will go away.

What are you doing to the FRAPS files? With a lot of FX especially CPU hogs it could take many hours to render that 4 min file.
.WMV is a pretty slow render in the first place. Do you NEED .wmv? For posting to Youtube or the like the Sony AVC will be faster. For the project properties you want to match your input file spec. If it is 60 FPS the 29.97 Project property will eat up some CPU as the computer tries to convert this on the fly. Better yet just capture the FRAPS at 29.97
As for your output file size it does not match what you should be getting with the rendering specs you provided. Are you actually outputting Uncompressed?

If you are capturing vie Firewire there is no “quality” loss. It is a direct digital transfer.

.wmv is a render intensive format for Vegas. If speed is important you might want to try the Sony or MC AVC encoding. Quad core would also help.

Does it have a firewire connection? I assume not and you will need some type of external Analog to Digital converter to get footage to the computer.
