I just purchased a computer recently expressly for being able to edit HD video. (AMD FX60 processor, 4 gig RAM) I've been having problems with Vegas Video. It worked fine on my old Intel chip computer but it seems that this AMD based computer is having problems. I cannot "capture" HD video from my HC-1 camera. The program recognizes my camera and I can control the FF and RW function but when I hit play or the red capture button the program freezes. I've have tried re-installing the program several times. I have updated the program. I have updated my video card. I have updated to SP2 as well as all current Windows XP updates. I really don't know if this is an AMD chip compatibility issue or firewire problem. My IEEE link does recognize the camcorder so I don't think it's IEEE link related. Although, I have another friend who has an AMD chip (not an FX60) and it works on his computer. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
