Default Stuttering video problem on Premier Pro ver 1

I have Premier Pro Ver 1 and when I place a single video track into a project, the video plays back fine in the sequence window. Once I put another video into the project and crop both so I get one video playing on one side and one on another, it stutters in the sequence window and does the same once I've saved it as a movie file. I've rendered the clips but this doesn't solve the problem. I've checked and I have the requirements for the software.

My pc spec is as follows....

Intel Pentium 4 Processor 516 - 2.93 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 Cache
80 GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive with 8MB cache
256 MB DDR SDRAM Memory
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900

Does anyone have suggestions as to what may be causing this problem and how to fix it.

By the way it is a brand new PC.

Many thanks

Are you sure you only have 256MB or RAM?

If you only have 256mb ram, then that could be one of the causes of your problem. The other is your 533mhz fsb, I'm not a computer techie but 800mhz fsb would be better and your 80Gb HD is far too small. I just used up 50Gb (admittedly is was capturing analogue video) onto the HD at the weekend so your 80Gb will fill up in no time. A second HD (180Gb to 250Gb recommended) and another 256Mb ram will help.

Thanks for your replies. I will be increasing the 256 MB and the hard disk size. Hopefully this will solve the problem.

Default I dont think its RAM

I have a AMD 2600 with 512 MB of RAM and I'm having the same problem. I can play any AVI file on my computer, except when its in the monitor screen even after rendering the picture stutters. When I export it, it still stutters. I think maybe its a codec problem. I would LOVE some help.

I read on an earlier posting (sorry, can't remember who it was) reading that the data rate may also be too high. DV is usually set at 3.6Mb per second, if there is some way you can lower that figure in your software it might help.
