I must add to Lee's comments, the graphics card driver can play an important part (even offline), even though there's no external connection. My laptop has not been online since I added the CUDA card support text, it worked OK before rendering AVCHD 'on the fly', but now seems to have given up the ghost.
Try downloading the latest drivers and installing them on the non connected PC. I'm not saying there is a timeclock on unconnected PC's, rendering the drivers useless, beut it sure seems that way sometimes. My other thought was the memory as Lee suggested. As for the format for transfer, keep it as good as the desired end format at least, you should be able to play as much as you like with it and keep a similar quality. BM.

I've googled that subject in the past, and there are several sites that list candidate processes to eliminate from startup, but even they don't get too specific and they seems to themselves always qualify their suggestions with a "if you don't need it, then disable it." without telling you whether or not you need it! Some help that is. If this is happening only with CS5 and not some other application such as Excel or whatever, then it is possible that the background processes you allude to are not the culprit, unless you think Adobe is calling them (doubtful). The culprit is likely something that is being called during the rendering process. A good candidate is the graphics card driver. Also, make sure the memory is good - this summer I had a client's computer crashing on me occasionally and I couldn't figure it out until by chance I ran the memory diagnostic and found a bad memory module. Replacing the module corrected the problem. In your case, perhaps that memory is not being hit by any other application until the render process fills up lower memory and now needs the next module. Wild guess, I know, but just something to be conscious of.

I need info on how to make this a lean, mean, editing machine! thanks as usual, [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
