I meant MPEG. When I came here I was hoping someone had the same thing happen and could tell me what to do.

Well, I had the same thing happen, and as I said, it's probably your source clips. For my first video, I was still on my 40 GB hard drive (I've got 120 GB now). I didn't have the free space to rip all my Escaflowne VOB's onto the hard drive, so I converted them all. This resulted in a REALLY REALLY REALLY slow Premiere, and I finally gave up. I waited until Christmas to receive my 80 GB hard drive, and ripped all the VOB's onto the HD and used AD and ErMaC's guide to import them into Premiere. It runs much smoother. Trust me.

Why the hell are you editing with MPEG-1 anyway? Thats like idling down the freeway in an unleaded car with a tank full of diesel!! Non-productive and potentially damaging!!! AVI is the wave of the future!!

AVI is a container format, that's it.

Also, SSJ2 Gohan is really fucking dumb. I showed Klinky a thread on SSJ2Gohan's forum with SSJ2 needing to install a hard drive, and I'm teaching him how to.

I use MPEG-1 clips, they are from my OWN dvd's, and my premiere has no lag at all.

OK. If the clip processing used to be fine, you changed your software back and forth a few times, and now those same clips aren't being processed fine with the same software as before then I don't think the problem is just the clips.

I think that there is something else running on your machine that is hogging the CPU. What else have you installed? SETI? Some spyware? A messenger? A P2P? NB: You may not want to post the answer to that question.

Load up Premiere, and then look at the performance in Task Manager, what is the CPU load? Can you see any apps running that are taking CPU time or network time?

Anything like KazaA, iMesh, programs like that, Gator, any download accelerators hag CPU time and resources like they're going out of fasion yesterday. Thats why I dont have any! i have a clean system (well almost...i have realone player...fucking obnoxious program that is)
