VIDDING HELP NEEDED

[fahye]

Okay, vidders.

I am assuming the fact that the program/my entire computer freezes up every ten seconds whilst I am trying to make a vid means that I don't have enough memory. But which type of memory? Is my hard drive not large enough, or do I need more RAM?

Note: I am using WMM. I do not need anything fancier than WMM. If it would cease and desist FUCKING UP ALL THE TIME, I would be perfectly happy to continue using WMM. But is there a chance there will be less upfucking with a different program? And if so, what should I use?

I have a pet project that I fiddle with occasionally and want to work on a lot during the holidays, and it'd be nice to get through it without screaming and putting my fist through Fabian's dementedly flickering screen.

waaaait, are you trying to vid on a laptop?

[fahye.livejournal.com]

Uh oh. Yes? Because it's all I have.

haha i totally didn't realise xD

yeah, i really don't know um, anything, about laptop video cards, except that they're naturally limited by being on-board.

I'll throw my hat in the "probably your graphics card" camp. :o but don't take my word as gospel. it isn't overheating, is it?

Nah, it's not an overheating thing.

WOE. I appear to be doomed to never be able to vid on this computer.
