1st time Solitaire Problem

Post by ScottGinn »

I have been having problems the past few weeks with my solitaire. When working with CB paint...after I go through all the work...I goto render and it locks up and tells me I've not shut down the machine properly....Also...When shooting stills in the photo mode...It now always crashes and tells me the same thing.......I'm losing a lot of time and not able to complete some projects at this time....Anyone have this problem before???? ANY thoughts on what may be going on with my system???

Thank you in advance

This sounds like a tired Operating System or a drive going out of parameters (aka: dying).

My bet would be on the OS if you have not done a full, destructive install in a while.

Either issue requires a full, destructive install so you should start looking at archiving footage to tape, DVD (disk transfer) or hard drive (not mirror as that transfers the problems along with the data, but rather the external hard drive option if you have it) and not adding any more projects so you can wipe the drive in a full install and return the OS to a squeeky clean state.
My mom always told me that happiness was the key to life.
At school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I said “happy" and they told me I didn’t understand the question.
I told them they didn’t understand life.
