Adobe Premiere Question

[gonzofool]

Everytime I try to "render selection" for a clip of video, the "Building Preview" window appears and my system locks up (basically nothing happens). I end up having to restart the computer. Any ideas?


Using Premiere 5.1 (yes I know i should upgrade, but i'm not upgrading until i get this problem fixed). EXTREMELY frustrated with Premiere...the ****ers at Adobe basically said it's my problem.


My system: Windows 98, Matrox RT2000


For the love of God, help...

Hi!
I had problems with this, too and for the last few years simply do an export>video instead. It depends on what you're trying to accomplish with the render but in my experience (and for my uses), making the clip was faster and more efficient. This may have been taken care of in premiere 6....I'll give it a try this week.
Good luck!
