Hey all. I'm kinda new to this video editting stuff and I've made a few crappy AMV's, but I'm working on it. Anyway, my problem is that my computer likes loading a lot when I put part of a video on the timeline. I use Windows Movie Maker 2 and have also tried Adobe Premiere 6.0,6.5,7.0. Anyway, my specs are below:
Dell Dimension 4400
Windows XP Home Edition
Penitum 4; 1.9 GHZ Processor
512 PC2700 DDR SDRAM
ATI Radeon 9200 Pro
I don't really know how to explain this well, but is there anyway to make my computer go any faster when trying to edit clips? In Premiere when I play the video it stutters a lot and you can hear my computer loading like crazy. I've tried defragmenting, cleaning up, even reformatting my drive. I have the latest drivers for everything and don't understand why my computer is acting this way. Maybe I need to disable Themes in Windows XP? Maybe I need to get a better video card, ram, what? ANY help at all is appreciated. I really wanna make a good AMV, but it doesn't look good for me...
