Hi guys. I've been on the phone and through email with Pinnacle Support
over my version of Studio 9 for the last 4 weeks and it's been a disaster!
They keep telling me I have a slow machine and that I have too many
processes running and that I have to get the thing down to almost B/W
resolution in order for Studio 9 to not crash and burn.
So let me see, a Athlon 64bit 3400+/1600 fsb/2Gb ram is slow AND a Pentium D
(dual core) 3.0 GHz (each) with 1Mb L2 cache with 2Gb ram ARE TOOOOO
SLOOOOOOOW says Pinnacle support.
I think after all I'm hearing here and with my own experience, the problem
is with Studio 9, not my computers!
I'm packing it up, and taking it back!
