Crashing and bluescreens in CS5.5

AE is crashing many times/daily and bluescreen frequency is increasing (today I had 2).
I'm working on my first 16 bit linear project (1280x800) w/a lot of layers and frequent use of Scatterize. Trapcode Shine, Particular.
I prerender all my 16bit 3D renders and bring them back in as 8bit png sequences. All the other elements are 8bpc.
As the project gets more complex, my performance goes down and crashing increases. Basically when I open the project, the response is great, but over a short time it slows down and crashes. The problem seems to be AE not releasing memory from RAM previews.
I've read the thread on recc'd settings and used the suggestion for 24GB RAM.
NextI'm going to try non-multithreaded.
My system:
i7 980 (12 cores)
24 GB Ram
SUS SABERTOOTH X58 Motherboard
Win7 Pro x64 SP1
nVidia QuadroFX 4600. Driver 275.89
Kingston HyperX 240.0 GB Solid State Drive
Second SATA III drive.
Indexing turned off on the drive.
I've closed all my resident programs (Skype, MalwareBytes, Carbonite, iTunes Helper)
I'm wondering if I need a video card with a lot more memory...
Any suggestions will be appreciated, especially if we can figure this out, because I'm working on a big job...
Thanks.

Good question. Are you refering to what is printed on the bluescreen? I don't always look! When I have looked, it has identified various apps that were running at the time. However, I don't think that is accurate for identifying the source of the problem, because this occurs even when no other apps are running. Because of the way it progressively slows down, it seems to me that there is a memory issue somewhere in the pipeline. I can imagine that 16bpc color increases the memory requirement signficantly, that's why I'm suspicious of an older video card (even though its high end).
I'm considering converting all my 3D sequences using a 16bpc project, then doing importing them into an 8bpc project to add effects... does that seem worthwhile?

My computer crashed and I have CS5. I got a new computer and need to load CS5 on there but dint have a disc. Can I do that from the Adobe site?

Is there somewhere I can access those downloads and serial numbers?

Hi Masculco,
The quicker solution is to subscribe for a Creative Cloud plan and juts go with that one but if you still need to go for the Cs5 go to this link Download and Installation Help | Download and Installation Help and scroll down. There is a section about downloading old versions of Creative Suite and Cs5 is there for you.
All my best,

If you subscribed to iTunes match the songs are kept in icloud. If you didn't but you did save the actual iTunes library folder which should include the music, video, etc. you should be able to just drag this file back to your machine in the same place and when you open iTunes it will give you a chance to identify the iTunes library folder.
You can test this to find out if you saved the media files or not and don't need to attach your nano to do it.
You are correct that once you connect the nano it will clear the existing files from it and sync it with the new iTunes library.
If you don't have the media files i'm not sure if/how to get them back on a windows ipod. I have everything backed up regularly because of the horror stories I have seen & heard.

I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 installed in two computers. The hard drive of my home computer crashed and I had no time to deactivate the software. The hard drive needed to be formatted. How can I activate the software CS5 again ? Thank you for an answer.

If it's the same computer, same CPU and same HD, no de-activation or re-activation should be necessary.
Install from scratch and apply all updates manually.
Please do a forum search. I and others have repeatedly answered the question about failed updates of CS5 a whole bunch of times recently.
Bottom line: the Adobe auto updater is utterly useless in CS5 and prior versions. You need to download the updates and apply them manually yourself.
I and others have even supplied the links for Mac and Win, which you haven't even bothered to specify.

I have Photoshop CS5. It Keeps crashing and shutting down my computer, a MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.8.

Photoshop CS5 shuts down my computer whenever I use the marquis tools or eraser, or copy and drag something.

I just disabled open GL and went back to work on the thing that has been behind the latest crash - and it did not crash this time. So, I am guardedly hopeful, but might be back. Regardless, thank you for your advice.

How can I re-download CS5 after my computer crashed and I lost the program?

Fix for crash in After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 when Joesoft Hear audio enhancer installed

After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5 both can crash due to a conflict with the Joesoft Hear audio enhancer.
We've just gotten confirmation from Joesoft that they've released a beta version of Hear that doesn't conflict with After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5. We're recommending that our customers who also use Hear install the 1.0.5b2 (build 490) beta version of Hear.
Let us know on this forum thread whether this solution works for you. We on the After Effects and Premiere Pro teams will monitor this thread for feedback, and we'll make sure that the folks at Joesoft get the information that they need, too.
When reporting back, be sure to let us know whether you've installed the Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) update and After Effects CS5 (10.0.1) update.

After 2 days trying to get AE and Premiere past the mediacore initialization message, I finally stumbled on this little message. Updating Hear definitely solves the problem!

Crashes and Lock-ups

I have been experiencing crashes and lock-ups in Premiere CS4.
Last week I was running Encore to burn a DVD and when I noticed the processor was running flat out. I decided to run Core Temp to check the temperatures. At that point my encoding stopped and Encore locked up.
Now I usually have Core Temp start when I load Windows. I have now disabled it and when I ran Premiere last night guess what? No lock-ups. Now this is early days but I suspect Core Temp might be the problem. I hope so. I'll report back with my findings when I have had more time to experiment.
PS I'm running Windows XP SP3, Quad Core 6600 and 4Gb RAM
Cheers,
Tim
