I also started with Pinnacle but Studio 7. It was not worth my time and
effort.

My friend, who bought 10.5 finally got it to load, but it will not
capture his video. He has worked with Studio 9 at school which is why he
bought 10.5, so he is an experience Pinnacle user. But 10.5 has been a
disaster. He needs to get a video made soon, so shifted to Elements.

I cannot believe posts by Pinnacle defenders whose solution is to
reformat your drive to make it work. Just plain arrogance. I have never
had to reformat my drive for any software (except an OS) and that is
with win 3.1, 98, 98se and XP. If that is what is required to use a
Pinnacle product, then do not buy it.
