Aanarav Sareen,
I built a new system and the motherboard has onboard RealTek sound card. I’m having terrible problems with rendering the footage on the new system with 1.5.
Could that be related to my sound card?
thanks,

I just built a new XP Pro-based system with nVidia chipset motherboard, and athlon 64 X2 2.7 GHz processor. Premiere Pro 1.5, the main app I use on this system renders so unbelievably slow as to be unusable.

I used PremierePro 1.5 on my older system, and it rendered acceptably fast. That was an AMD 1.5 GHz processor system.

The old system had a Matrox Parhelia 128 MB video card.

The new one has two nVidia GeForce 7600 GS PCI-E cards in SLI-enabled motherboard.
2-gig of dual channel 400 ddr ram. 3 big SATA drives, and scratch disks separated as directed (conformed audio on different physical drive than other scratch drives).

Anyone know what I need to do to get 1.5 to render properly on the new 64X2 processor system? It is currently so slow that I get only a few dozen rendered frames every minute!

I found one Microsoft patch that helps with the MPEG-2 transcoding bug, but it didn’t help my rendering problem at all.
