I already have tested the task manager option and yes it is appering in the task mananger,
And I opened it from the root folder not using any shortcuts or links.
Im running windows 7 and I also have the link pinned to the task bar, and Its not doing its usual thing where it says the program is running by putting the button thing on (If that makes sence)

I may re-install the program later today when I have some free time, but if anyone knows of any fixes I would be greatful.

Thanks In Advance
Thomas

I’v just found out that the reason it froze when taking the screenshot was because it was trying to load the project with the files in.
So Im bak to the problem of these mp4 files freezing vegas.

I used a template i got off the internet that someone recomended.
I tried it out and found it gave good quality videos at a low MB size, perfect for youtube.
attached are my render settings.
iv managed to play the videos fine, and even upload them to youtube.

**I just tried to take the screen shot of my render settings and Vegas just fully froze on me.
Might be a different problem then?

[Danny Hays] “Preview setting “Draft, quarter” is the lowest quality setting but is worse looking that the low framerate setting it to “Preview,auto” in my opinion. If neither of these work for you your 3 options are using Cineform, making DV widescreen proxies to edit with and switch them back to the hd files before rendering, or getting a faster computer. What are your computer specs?”

I am running a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 2.5GHz
3GB Ram
1GB video

What is this proxy thing you are talking about??
Thanks
