I'm having a kinda funky problem with my Acid Pro 3.0.
For some odd reason its behaving very slowly, both graphically and soundwise, until I open any kind of video file (i.e. mpeg, avi). All of a sudden it stops being jerky and runs absolutely smooth. The second I close my video file Acid decides to be slow again.
I found this out by accident.
Noone so far has been able to help me figure out whats the matter with it.
All I know is its most probably not my soundcard because the problem persists even when I remove anything sound related (drivers, etc).
My video card (geforce 32meg) is running the latest drivers, but I dunno.
My system is a 1-gig AMD with 256megs of RAM, etc, and I'm on Win2000.

Could it actually be Acid itself ? Only I havent found anyone experiencing the same problem with it.

Thanks.

What sound card are you using? there are some issues with amd and sound cards and tell if it's PCI or ISA bus card.

See ya

Looks like I figured out..
its having problems with my graphic card running at full hardware acceleration. tweaking it down a bit seems to fix the problem for acid.

thanks anyway.
