VIDDING HELP NEEDED
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.

Ok, do a disk cleanup and make sure it does the temp files and the internet cache. Then do a scandisk, which should solve the problems you're having with defrag, and then do a defrag (make sure you've no programs running in the background when you defrag, screensavers and stuff, they can slow it down or even stop it). That should sort the errors mesages (fingers crossed).
Then try the video stuff again. If its still having problems, update your video card drivers, also see how much free space you have on your c drive, windows likes lots of room to maneouvre when its running programs.
(the scratch disk thing I mentioned is how some programs grab extra memory to fool around in, they write to the hard drive and back as well as using RAM. If there's not much free hard drive space they can't do that, which slows performance.)
