Posted by Dayspring As far as the freezes, do you mean that Premiere freezes altogether and you have to restart the computer, or do you mean that Premiere can be restarted, or do you mean that the whole system seems to freeze for a little bit and then works again so that you can continue, just takes awhile? As far as the two second delay, that's an issue that couldn't be overcome on both the RT2000 and RT2500. Because it uses hardware decoding, rather than software decoding, it takes that amount of time to fill up the buffer on the card and start playing the video. There's really nothing to do about that. I do think that with the quality of your system, the one piece really holding you back is your RT2000. Both the fact that you can't get a better video card than the G400 Flex, and you can't really take advantage of a lot of your horsepower for certain tasks. You may consider updating to an RT.X10, RT.X100, or simply working with Premiere in software rendering mode. Now that I've thought about it a bit, one weird thing that I've heard to try in case of odd random lockups is to turn off hyperthreading. Premiere is a threaded application, but I've heard that hyperthreading can cause some oddness in some applications, even ones that should support it. Just something to try...

: 80Gb Seagate barracuda as a single
: drive. I have another drive but its
: an old 5400 RPM 40gb Quantum
: Fireball. I was working before with
: that Quantum as a single drive also
: (because my A/V drive died) and
: dind't have any problems like I have
: now with that Seagate Barracuda. The
: proble s I have freezes when I'm
: working in Premiere. Also having a 2
: second delay when I pulse space bar
: to play in time line. I have the same
: before when I install my old Quantum
: as system drive and the Seagate as
: A/V drive. I thought the problem was
: incompatibility between these drives.
: I try to work first with Quantum only
: as a single drive and everything were
: fine so I dediced to try the same
: with my 80gb Seagate instead and now
: I'm having those a annoying freezes.
