• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Data Execution Prevention

Lets go back to basics. How much RAM do you have? Are you running any other programs while you work with Sony Vegas?

Also, you may need to look at defragging your hard drive. This can also lead to crashing problems and video editing programs are particularly sensitive to this. How much hard drive space is available? Other things to consider.

1.25 Gigs of Ram. I've got FF running but shutting that down doesn't change anything.

I've ran the defragger but it said that I do not need to defrag.

Sony Vegas seems to be working now but any of the TMPG software as well as DVD Studio crashes.
 
Depending on your computer, your BIOS may have DEP enabled by default. Can you run the following commands?

From an Administrative command prompt:
wmic OS Get DataExecutionPrevention_Available

Will return TRUE is hardware-enforced DEP is on.

From an Administrative command prompt:
wmic OS Get DataExecutionPrevention_SupportPolicy

Should return a integer between 0 and 3 showing the policy level.
 
Greyed out settings can also mean that the user you are logged-in as does not have the permissions to change those settings.

You aren't doing a very good job of explaining exactly what you have or have not done from what has been suggested, which makes it difficult to know how to help you further.

This guy loved Vista (imagine that!) after making these three changes
