Premiere Elements 9 crashes with multiple NVIDIA graphics cards under Windows 7

I've just installed Premiere Elements 9 and found that it will not run at all with multiple NVIDIA graphics cards active under Windows 7. Per all the other discussions, I updated the NVIDIA drivers and Quicktime support to the latest versions. (NVIDIA version 260.99). I have both a 9400 GT and an 8400 GS installed, to support multiple monitors. They both use the same driver. The PRE 9 organizer will run, but as soon as I create or load a project it quickly crashes.
On a long shot I disabled the 8400 GS card in the Device Manager and now I can run PRE 9. Of course this means giving up one of my monitors. Any other ideas?

Over in the Premiere Pro area (or maybe it was in the Hardware section... didn't pay a lot of attention 'cause it really didn't matter to me) I read a message about using two nVidia cards with no problems (other than no dual-card SLI support)
I **think** that was with two SAME model nVidia cards
And, of course, PPro is completely different code, so PreEl may simply not work with two nVidia cards

[Solved] Triple Headed Xinerama Setup with 2 Nvidia Graphics Cards

I'm trying to get a triple headed setup working with xinerama (and awesome as my WM) and am more or less at a complete loss.
Ive tried assembling my own /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf from various wiki resources and manpages, which you can see at:
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/467600
also the output of "lspci | grep VGA"
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 06c4 (rev a3)
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 06c4 (rev a3)
I've never actually done anything vaguely like this before, and if there's something that'll just explain to me what all the options do with respect to xinerama and "zaphodheads" and whatnot i'd be grateful. If you can actually tell me how to fix it, that'll be absolutely wonderful.

Greetings Jello-Raptor,
I just recently configured a 2 monitor set up using nvidia-settings.
# nvidia-settings
This is the GUI way to do things and you can choose either TwinView (which gives you an extended monitor) or Xinerama (separate monitors but you can move between them). I use the Xinerama with a nvidia card and it works great. Once you go to multiple heads you wonder how you ever lived with out them
All the best,
Ian

Need info about nvidia graphics card supported with premiere pro cs5

Hi
I need information about nvidia graphics card supported with premiere pro cs5
If I have a computer(portable) with this video card or graphics card :
nVIDIA® GeForce™ GTX 285M with 1GB DDR3 Video Memory available in Single or Dual (SLi) Configurations
Microsoft® DirectX® 10 Compatible
is it going to support MPE in premiere pro cs5?
Regards,
Vinay

To be clear:
You asked about supported cards. Here is a list of supported cards. Others on this thread are telling you how to make an unsupported card function to some degree using a method that is not advocated by Adobe.

Non NVidia graphics card issues with Adobe and Mountain Lion

It took me a while to figure it out, but now I am certain. If using a Mac with a non nvidia graphics card there will be issues in Mountain Lion while using Adobe products. I tested this with Illustrator CS6 for over a year on 5 different Mac computers.
Here is what happens
As soon as I open Illustrator on a Mac without a NVidia graphics card and I attend to apply an shadow effect, Illustrator crashes. If I do this procedure on a Mac with a NVidia inside, all works well.
I tested this on the following Macs
MacBook Pro (Early 2009) with NVidia 9600M GT - it works
MacBook Pro (Early 2011) with Radeon 6750M - doesn't work
Mac Pro (Early 2009) with Radeo HD 5770 - doesn't work
The same Mac Pro (Early 2009) with NVidia GT120 - it works
MacBook Air (Mid 2012) with Intel HD 4000 - doesn't work
iMac (Late 2012) with NVidia 680MX - it works
Since I owned all these Macs, I could test it several times with different kind of software updates. 10.8, 10.8.1, 10.8.2 and 10.8.3 did deliver the same result. Everytime the same result.
Already got in touch with Adobe
With Illustrator CS5 it worked like a charme, so I assumed it could be an Adobe issue. But Adobe support told me, it's Apple's fault since 10.8 uses different processes for the graphics performance.
What can be done, to resolve this issue? I cannot buy only Macs with NVidia inside, since the small portable front of Macs is only coming with Intel graphics cards. And is there anybody out there, having this issue? I cannot be the only one, using shadows in Illustrator.

With Illustrator CS5 it worked like a charme, so I assumed it could be an Adobe issue. But Adobe support told me, it's Apple's fault since 10.8 uses different processes for the graphics performance.
A typical response. IMO it's most likely a combination of Adobe's reluctance to fix the issue combined with Apple's desire for advancement and change. I've personally experienced several things that've become broken owing to Apple changing fundamental aspects of the OS, and the developers of the third-party software in question have either never fixed their software, or are taking their sweet time. WireTap Studio and Snapz Pro from Ambrosia are a case in point, though they eventually fixed Snapz Pro. Eventually…
Frankly, good luck getting either side to do anything about this. Your best bet is probably getting in touch with AppleCare and seeing if you can get this escalated to Engineering, but I wouldn't hold your breath for a fix from either party. Or perhaps one of the Apple mailing lists will prove useful.

NVIDIA Graphic Card doesn't work on T430S with Windows 8

My T430S laptop runs Windows 8 and has a NVIDIA graphic card. Somehow I was never able to enter the NVIDIA control panel and got the error message below. I checked the setting in BIOS and it seems that NIVDIA Optimus mode is not availale on Windows 8. I updated the most recent driver released in Feb 2013 from Lenovo but it didn't solve the problem. I was wondering how I could use the NVIDIA on my compueter.

Hi, jumper1127
There is also a BIOS update availabe for your machine that came out around the same time as the Optimus driver. That can be found here and may help your issue.
Best of luck. Let me know how it goes

Apple MacBook Air 11 inch, 13 inch, or Dell XPS 14 with i7 and nvidia graphics card?

I am a college student looking for either a MacBook Air 11 inch or a MacBook Air 13 inch. I was looking at the Dell XPS 14 with i7 processor and nvidia graphics card. It is similar in price to an Apple MacBook Air 11 inch. I will mainly use the laptop for browsing, a bit of Minecraft, watching videos (netflix/downloading movies), presentations, and documents. I would also need it to be lightweight because I will be carrying it around campus. I cannot choose between these three.....any ideas? I have an iPhone 5 and iPad with retina display (that is what I use currently and it is not working out). I just saw the WWDC14 and I saw how all my devices could connect to the Mac flawlessly.
Please let me know,
Thanks

I recommend the macbook 13" retina. Yes, it is expensive, but if you pair it with 8GB of memory, you should be futureproof for the next 5 years minimum. Why not the air.
Currently the air sports thunderbolt 1, This is super outdated. Macbook pro has thunderbolt 2 which allows you to daisy chain monitors via display port 1.2. Macbook Air sports display port 1.1a which only allows daisy chaining amoungst thunderbolt monitors which are expensive. $1000 minimum per a monitor where as you could pickup a daisy chainable displayport 1.2 dell monitor for $200. The only reason I am severely regretting my 13" Air.
The screen, yes, in a few years all screens will sport retina resolutions. It makes a big difference when reading and typing for long periods of time. Text is more clear. Also, 11" is way too small. If you want something that small, get an Ipad Air.
Battery life, 9 hours should still be enough to get you through the day. I go to school and I could only top out at 7 hours usage at most.
Gaming, Although I dont recommend gaming on any laptop because laptops aren't meant so much for gaming. Mostly because the heat generated from it kills the life of your laptop. It is up to 20% faster than the air.
Weight, half a pound off the 13" AIR is not a big deal. Actually the retina is smaller in height and width, so better center of balance when using it on your lap and the black bezel is less distracting.
Processor, its 10% faster in overall processing speeds generally.
Dont forget to purchase 2 year extended warranty. Buy that from bhphoto for 180 bucks. No tax and its way cheaper than apple.
If you still want the air after that, consider getting the 13". It comes with sd card slot, it is handy when you run out of space. And its 10% faster than the 11" even though they have the same processor. The processor's performance is based on the thermal threshold of the computer. The hotter it gets, the slower the computer gets to cool the processor down.
If you choose the Macbook Pro 13" RETINA(Not the $999 version with the DVD Drive), if you can, wait till late october when they update the computer with better hardware. Well... if you can.

Please help ... Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0 or later?

Hi there,
I'm have a bit of an issue with After Effects and Premiere.
After Effects:
Keeps asking for Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0
Premiere crashes unexpectedly
Can someone please help
Much-ly appreciate

Hi there,
Sorry took a while to get back to you guys. I have been having some issues with Premiere and Aftereffects CC.
I recently bought an Apple Pro CTO - Intel Xeon E5 3.7 GHZ Quad-Core with 10MB of L3 Cache, 32GB (4x 8gb) 1866MHZ DDR3 ECC DDR3 RAM, 1TB PCIE-BASED Flash storage, DUAL AMD FIREPRO D500 GPUS with 3GB of GDDR5 VRAM, DUAL Gigabit NIC, 802.11AC, bluetooth, 6x thunderbolt2 ports, MAC OS X.
Issue 1 - Aftereffects CC
Ray-tracing o the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0
Issue 2 - Premiere CC
Warp Stabiliser wasn't stabilising correctly and now doesn't work at all in premiere CC. I even tried to link to aftereffects but it still doesn't stabilise the shots correctly.
I use to operate PC before with Adobe CS6 and I didn't get any issue stabilising.
If you guys can point me what's the best way to get it to work correctly that would be magic.
Look forward to hear from you

GPU acceleration with the nvidia 680M card?

Should i have GPU acceleration with the nvidia 680M card? i believe the 680 is supported but is the 680M supported? If not, any plans to support this card in the next update?

I navigated to the cuda support folder and added the Nvidia 680M to the list. The i went to the Nvidia settings and changed the Adobe premiere setting to compatibility mode. Opened my project and began editing. It crashes after a few seconds.
I'm also getting this full screen issue that people are talking about. For example, when I minimise premiere to work in another program and go back to premiere when i'm done I get a full screen display of the frame currently in the preview window. This also happens when the computer is inactive for a time. I'll came back to the computer after a few minutes to find the view in full screen. Sometimes a double clip it and it brings back the standard editing workspace but sometimes I have to 'control, alt, delete' to start task manager, open a new window (can be anything) and navigated to that window then back to premiere. It's as if Premiere has frozen.

Is CS5 compatible with GeForce 7350GE graphics card?

MBP - To get NVIDIA graphics card or not?

Hi all - my basic question is this: **What real world benefit do i get from the NVIDIA card?**
i know it's a quick and simple question but I'm having a surprisingly hard time getting an answer on this on the Net.
The background is this: I'm a part time web developer who just bought a refurb late 2013 MBP 15" 2.6Ghz 1TB with the NVIDIA 750 card (running Mavericks) and am pretty appalled at the battery life I'm getting.
While doing 'normal' tasks, like browsing the web, listening to itunes, watching a movie in VLC etc etc i get about *3 hours* or less and that's without any coding or development work! this increases to around 5 hours if i 'switch off' the NVIDIA card and force it to run on the IRIS chipset (using gfxCardStatus).
so i decided to try running Aperture, Photoshop and other graphics intensive apps in IRIS only mode and didn't see any real difference in performance from when i have them running with the NVIDIA card active (various filters and layer effects etc seemed just as fast)
Now - i can return this machine and buy a NEW MBP from Adorama without the NVIDIA card for the same price that comes with 3 years of Applecare AND an Apple TV!
So - what would i be losing? which apps would see a significant drop in performance? I'm sure Cinema 4D and Maya and the like would be much happier with the card, but i dont really do any 3D modeling and only very occasionally some light CAD stuff.
i do use Photoshop and Aperture quite a bit, however - but like i said, i haven't seen any noticeable difference between using them with the NVIDIA card vs the integrated chipset.
Truly the only difference i notice is the battery drain!!
Am i missing something important here?
I'd love to hear from some of you professional web devs out there (or anyone else with knowledge on the matter).
Soon as possible would be great!
Cheers all - and Happy Holidays
- Bennett

Hi Col,
Had already several questions, about crawling CP. Mostly it was linked with big files on systems with too little dedicated memory for graphics and/or to little RAM-memory. The minimum requirements specified for Captivate will perhaps work if you have only that application open and with small files. Of course, since you'll remain with 32-bit only 2GB can be used by programs, so that leaves memory for graphics if you have 8GB. Personally I always have preferred a dedicated graphics card, my laptop has 1GB card (NVidia) and my new desktop a 2GB card. But I'm also using a lot of Adobe applications (not only Photoshop but also Premiere Pro, After Effects). I know that when I added 8GB RAM to my laptop (it had a NVidia card) to the available 4GB, Captivate got a boost.... My desktop has 32GB of memory but I'm a real multitasker. I was told that the buitl in Graphics now work much better than a while ago, and honestly never tried with a system without a graphics card.

Hi
I purchased a MacBook Pro 15inch iris pro Retina display version (£1599) recently.
Can we upgrade tit with Nvidia graphics card?
Thanks

In USA, you can return a Mac within 14 days of purchase and buy a new one with the desired spec.
Retina MacBook Pro cannot be upgraded once bought.
Best.

Adobe Premiere Elements crashes on export

Hello,
I am working on a video project in Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0. My computer is a Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Dell XPS M1530 laptop with the following hardware:
Toshiba MK3263GSX Disk Drive
285 GB, 149 GB used
burst transfer rate: 3 MBps
5400 RPM
8 MB cache
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T8300
2.40 GHz
4.00 GB of RAM
Whenever I try to export my project (which is less than 3 minutes long and contains no more than 2.25 GB of 720p 30fps video), the program crashes. Usually, the progress bar will go about half way before an Adobe message tells me that Premiere is running low on system memory. Not long after that, a Windows message appears telling me that "Adobe Premiere Elements has stopped working" and it crashes to the desktop. This has occured without fail perhaps 50 times in all my tries to get this to save.
As this project has progressed and become larger and larger, it has become more and more difficult to export. At first, there were no problems. Then, I had to start restarting the program or my computer immediately before exporting. After making a few more changes and additions, I have been entirely unable to export succesfully.
I have set my export settings at far lower levels than would be acceptable for this project, but the program still crashes. I was most recently trying to save the file as an .mpg with the NSTC Widescreen DVD settings. Trying to save in other file formats and at other settings has not been succesful.
I do realize that this is probably a commonly asked question, so I apoligize for bringing it up again. I have searched for information on this topic and have tried several suggestions, including changing the virtual memory and cleaning up my hard drive.
Is my computer just too weak to export this project? Would a more recent program fix my problem? Are there any techniques or suggestions I should try?
Thank you very much for your help.

>chose setting NTSC HDV
According to Kodak http://store.kodak.com/store/ekconsus/en_US/pd/Zi8_Pocket_Video_Camera/productID.156585800 you are not selecting the correct setting... that camera does not use HDV

Premiere elements crashes when burning a DVD

I'm trying to burn a slide show I've created. It's a mixture of photoshop elements photo slideshow and edited videos, about 30 minutes long.
But every time I try and burn it to DVD, premiere elements crashes. It generally gets to about 30% through the encoding media stage.
Has anyone else come across this problem? I thought it might be related to virtual memory, but I've increased this, and it's not had an effect. I'm running it on a laptop with 4Gb RAM, so RAM shouldn't hopefully be a problem.
When trying to burn, i've also tried to reduce the quality so instead of using "Fit contents to available space" I've reduced the bit rate down to 5Mbps so the space required is just over 1.2Gb (it was originally about 2Gb).
Has anyone any suggestions as to how to resolve / diagnose this problem.
I've burnt several DVDs before without any problems, although they were mainly just photos
Thanks in advance

The easiest way to do this is with Photoshop (PS). I'm certain that PSElements can do it well also, but do not know what might be different. This is for Photoshop.
Place copies of your files into a folder. I use copies because I do not want anything to happen to my originals and play it extra safe. Add a sub-folder. I name mine something like "Final_PSD's,) etc. In PS, I have a series of Actions, to re-size to my common video formats. They are named things like, NTSC_Wide, NTSC_4-3, etc. The Action is set to Open the files, then change the size to the appropriate dimensions and assign the correct PAR for that Project, such as my NTSC_4-3 gets a PAR of 0.9. The Action then does a Save_As. I keep .PSD's as .PSD's, but JPEG would work well too.
In PS, I go to File>Automate>Batch Process. This brings up a dialog screen, where I choose the Action that I want to run, NTSC-4-3 in this case. I direct the program to the Source Folder and the appropriate Destination Folder, my "Final_PSD's" in this case. If I have the sub-folder targeted for the Destination Folder, I leave the file naming conventions the same. I check Bypass Open command, as I do not need to see the work being done. Check over everything. Hit OK, and in a few minutes, I can re-size hundreds of files. Time will depend on one's system, and also on the size of the Target Files.
I feel that there WILL be differences in PSE, but someone else will have to fill in that info. It has also been pointed out that the freeware image processor and cataloging program Irfanview cand do batch re-sizing quite well. This might be an option. I do not use it for such, so I cannot comment.
Good luck,

Premiere Pro & Premiere Elements Crash When Open Together?

Anyone have a problem with Premiere Pro & Premiere Elements crashing when open together?
I have PE10 and am doing a trial of Premiere Pro CS6.
Both crash fairly quickly when open together.
i7 2600K
Windows 7 64 Bit
16GB RAM
GTX 470
Corsair AT 850 Watt PSU
Thanks!

The first thiing that comes to my mind is a resources issue. As you have a stout computer, with more than adequate RAM, unless something is failing (like a stick of RAM), or perhaps the GPU, I would not expect to see what you observe. On a much less powerful machine, I have no problem running PrPro, Encore, Photoshop, Illustrator, and a word processor, all at the same time.
I would look into this ARTICLE, which starts with some general tips on setting up one's computer for running PrE, and then goes into system and OS tune-up tips (this is probably where I would start, if the intitial checklist looks OK), and then goes into troubleshooting. I would definitely look here, and especially using Event Viewer to try and track down what is happening, when the crashes occur, and also the one on tools to test RAM, GPU's, etc.).
Good luck,
Hunt

Help with installing new graphics card

Hi I have a 3 year old hpe575a (hp pavillion)
Intel i7 2600, 8gb ram
Orginally had a ati hd radeon 2gb (not sure what model)
in it
after 2 years the radeon finally melted ( always had overheating problems in the australian summer )
so I bought a nvidia gtx630m which had the same connections and power requirements and connections as the radeon
I csnt seem to get it working, despite the card powering up, and loading the splash screen it doesnt go any further, I can get to the network boot screen or the hp splash screen but no further, and I cant find any bios updates for my mptherboard (pegatron) so do I need a new motherboard? The computer works 100% fine without the new graphics card
Should I get a new motherboard. Or graphics card? which would be cheaper? or is there someway to get the current system to work with the new graphics card? thanks -zac

Hi,
The existing card is an "AMD Radeon HD6570 (2 GB)". I don't know how you can fit a Nvidia GTX630M to your machine because this card is for laptop:
     http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gt-630m/specifications
Probably you are talking about the following card:
    http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-630/specifications
The card should be able to use 300W PSU on your machine (no need new PSU). My suggestion:
(a) Update BIOS to the latest one, please check, should be "Version7.15 Rev. A" the motherboard is Cleveland
     http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=cp-101150-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
(b) Install driver for new card
Hope this helps.
Note: Autumn now but still hot isn't it ?
