Premiere cs4 not running in Windows 7

I recently started editing some AVChd files pulled off of my Sony hd cam on Premiere cs3 using Windows XP pro. I quickly realized that the HD files were not supported by CS3 and therefore upgraded to CS4 with significant lag. Not knowing much about anything, I thought that some more ram would solve my lag problems. So I invested in 4 more gigs and Windows 7, so now I have the capabilities of the full 5 gig. However, after re-installing cs4 on Windows 7, I am now unable to edit my hd files at all. The program loads fine, the videos are there but the lag and freezing is impossible to work with. I only have a single core processor I bought five or so years ago b/c at the time the newest Pro Tools I was using was not compatible with the dual core. I am in desperate need of help since like I said - I am a moron when it comes to setting up computers. I'm not sure if this is a Windows 7 issue or something else. Please help! I am sick and tired of throwing my money away with no results!
My PC's specs:
Model : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz
Speed : 3.41GHz
Total Memory : 5GB DIMM DDR2
Mainboard : Asus P5WD2-Premium
Model : ASUS 82955X Memory Controller Hub
Windows 7 x64

A P4 is simply too slow to edit AVCHD... you need an i7
My CS5/AVCHD 1st Impressions http://forums.adobe.com/thread/652694?tstart=0 includes a link to the computer I built... since the GTX 285 is no longer sold, I would now go with a GTX 460 or whatever is the current "best bang for the buck" - AND I would buy 4Gig-by-3Sticks memory to be able to expand from 12Gig to 24Gig if needed
For my home hobbyist, family movies (which means that I am not trying to recreate Star Wars with video effects or many layers) AVCHD editing is "as smooth as spreading warm butter on hot toast" (also the MP4 video from wife's Flip camera)
My 3 hard drives are configured as... (WD = Western Digital)
1 - 320G WD Win7 64bit Pro and all program installs
2 - 320G WD Win7 swap file and video project files
3 - 1T WD all video files... input & output files

Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708?tstart=0 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for video editing
Steve Grisetti in the Premiere Elements forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856208?tstart=0 and Jim Simon in the Premiere Pro forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856433?tstart=0 use USB externals for editing
A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used this eSata Dock... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

  • Director 11.5 "exe" not running in windows lower version

    hi,
    i have some project made in director mx2004 (d10) and convert it to director 11.5 but when i publish exe it will not run on windows 2000 or windows 98 (basically lower then windows xp2), have any one idea of that
    thanks

    This page shows the authoring and runtime OS requirements. Unfortunately, D 11.5 isn't set up to run on Windows versions earlier than XP. You may want to keep that earlier version of your .exe and make it available to users with 2000 or 98.

      Microsoft Windows 8.1 officially supports all currently supported Microsoft Office versions including Office 2013 / 2010 / 2007 / 2003 , and may be even earlier versions unofficially. I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus on my Windows 8.1 and it runs fine with no issues.   Could you try what has already been suggested by others including Big_Dave and reinstall Microsoft Office with complete reboot/restart  between uninstall/new installation <restart, not shut down and start over>. If this doesn't work, please post again if installation went fine, what exactly is the error code (if any), what is the problem exactly, any screenshots ?

  • Continuing update failure problems, "Not running real Windows"

    Hello,
    About 2 weeks ago I started getting a message on my computer screen "Not running Genuine Windows". I am most definitely running genuine windows. I checked the archives here and tried a fix that popped up, no joy.
    It gave a fix option, which failed...generating error code 800706F7 again. I called tech support, a lady spent two hours working on the computer and could not fix it. She sent me to level two tech support, he called on New Years Day and worked on it for
    a couple of hours and thought it was fixed.
    The error message is back, the computer will not accept updates from windows updates.com, tells me to install update fix it, did so, still fails to install updates. This is becoming a nightmare, please help.

    Hello NorCal Jeff,
    Please use system restore to restore the system back to a store point before two weeks ago and check if the issue still exists.
    System Restore:

    In my previous post I described one of the problems I found out the hard way - walking around in disassembler is a pain, even more Intel and Windows, comparing to Mac, and PowerPC. Since then I only use the official tools even if others tell it worked for them, and I keep the InDesign installations for final build and test on the earliest supported operating system.

  • Encore CS4 not comaptible with Windows 7?

    I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate (which I'll probably regret later) and put my CS4 Master Collection 30 day trial on it.
    Encore launches and I get the "This program has known compatibility issues" B.S. from Windows. The program will still run if I tell Windows to run it, but it's awful frustrating that Everytime Windows makes a new OS or SP release, suddenly everything but Office, Internet Explorer, and Windows Media Player is incompatible.
    Anyone else seen this error, or is everyone still using Vista or XP?

    A few points about comments in this thread:
    Unfortunately Windows DVD Maker does not support Blue Ray. I just built a new machine specifically for burning HD video. Now I have no way to create the disc.
    Unplugging the Blue Ray drive allows Encore to load the HD assets, but when you plug it back in Encore hangs on the splash screen saying it is transcoding.
    I have two RAID controllers on my MB. I am running Intel 8.9 and JMicron JMB36X. I tried plugging the optical drive into both controllers and Encore fails with both.
    I have a feeling Encore is not playing by WIN 7's rules, (undocumented/unsupported call?) which is why it hangs on the sys info screen.
    BTW This was a fresh install on a new machine I built this week:
    i7 860 Quad Core
    ASUS P7P55D-PRO
    8 GB  DDR3 1600 mhz
    ATI Radeon HD 4670
    Boot Disk:  WD Veloci Raptor 300

  • Premiere CS6 not running smoothly.

    Alright all, I'm stumped.  I was running Premiere CS6 via the Cloud membership, everything was going perfectly, I had started new projects and even transferred one over I was using in CS5.5 and had no problems.  Then suddenly, my CS6 is not running smoothly.  The footage lags, the timecode for the timeline isn't smooth, and the program in general is a little rough.  But the sound plays perfect with any footage in the timeline.  I pull the same footage back in 5.5 and it works flawlessly.  Cleaned the Cache, deleted and reinstalled CS6 and ran all updates, still having the same problem.  Any ideas?

  • ITunes 10 will not run on Windows 7, 64 bit

    I have upgraded to itunes 10 and now it will not run. In task manager the process is running but no programme. i uninstalled all itunes, quick step, bonjour and apple folders. Then tried a clean instal of itunes 10. Still didn't work. Uninstalled again and reloaded v 9.2 and it works. Tried disabling bonjour and ran the instal of 10 again and it still doesn't work. This is becoming a major pain as I am stuck on v9.2.

    Try installing the version 10 again so we can check on a few other characteristics of the problem, seeoh.
    (1) Does your QuickTime Player launch, or do you get an error message of some kind when you try to launch that?
    (2) Try (by way of experiment) disabling the BonJour Service.
    In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
    Expand "Services & Applications".
    Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
    Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
    Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

    I try to be a good lil girl and follow forum rules, but am lost here.
    I bought a new laptop, a Dell 17R  It runs Win 7 I think. Lots of ROM/RAM.  I dowloaded the desktop program from bb dot com and cannot get it to work.  First it asked me to trouble shoot, and reconfigured the DT prog for Win XP.
    It then acknowledged my Torch and dld my photos.  Then it decided I didn't have space and undid whatever it did.
    NOW I cannot get the program, once it opens to recognise my phone at all! ACK!!
    I need someone who understands this gobbltygook to explain to me what to do.  I need to unload my photos, as I use my phone to take pix more than I would have thought.
    I am a photog, and it's better than my first digital this Torch 9800 is, and video quality, OMG, but the vids are too big to upload from the phone..........(IDK why cuz it did at Christmas?)
    Anyway, please help me here, as I can use a computer, e-mail, Facebook, Picassa, other than that, IDK too much about them.  (It took my YEARS to spring for this laptop)
