I check Task Manager Performance graphs for the following:
1 - RAM = 16>32 2 - THREADS = 2 This gives me a nice 100% usage. |
whew!
OK, so I reinstalled Windows and applied all available updates, and my system seems to be running 1000% better. I rendered the vegas project with no major speed issues. I'm thinking that there was and/or had been a major security problem that had gummed up the works. Things seem to be OK now.
I'm still going to clean around my fans, though. Thanks, Graham. |
Glad you got it to work. It sucks to spend 5 hours rendering something only for it to die or crash.

Back-up your registry now for future "sanity" checks!
Now that you've installed a clean instance of Windows XP with your base applications, back-up your registry! If you run into future crazy behavior, you can quickly restore your registry back to sanity:

A full OS install doesn't take that long, especially if you have a dedicated "system" drive with just a few applications, keeping your data on some other disk. It's often easier to simply re-install rather than spend hours trying to resolve the enigma... |
