New to sony vegas and need rendering help

I think I have a bad codec or something going on. My renders have slowed to a crawl. A 1 minute test render takes 12 minutes to render. Importing video as avi and need to find quicker renders for now. Can’t afford new computer yet, but need about a 3- 1 render time for dvds for clients.

I am using sony vegas 7d. I have a single processor pentium (yes I know its slow, but it used to render 3 minutes per minute of video). I formatted main hard drive, 250 meg. Putting windows xppro on 95gig partition, 140 gig for programs. Have a terrabyte hd for storage. Do I need different codecs.
