Yes, I am using the trial version and that seems to be the problem. I greatly appreciate your help.
By the way, let me as you what you think about my machine capabilities to run cs3 and edit hdv. Nothing fancy, just cuts.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5400+
2.8GHz Socket AM2
Dual-Core Processor (OEM)
Asus M2A-VM HDMI Socket
AM2 690G DDR2 mATX
Motherboard w/ HDMI
Support, Audio, Video,
and Gigabit LAN (RETAIL)
Crucial 2GB (1GBx2)
240-pin PC2-6400 DDR2 800
Dual Channel Memory Kit
Do you think I am going to be able to edit hdv with these? Thanks
