What's up forum users!! I want to thank you all in advance for taking the time to try and help me...I sent this letter to Sony tech support but have not heard back from them yet so I decided to post the letter here in hopes that someone may have a solution for me...the letter reads:
I am a registered Vegas user. I have successfully used Vegas 5.0 for approximately a year. I have been running Windows 2000 on my PC. Recently, I purchased some software that required Windows XP so I upgraded my OS. I installed all the critical updates for Windows XP including SP2. I then installed all my software back onto the SAME EXACT PC. No hardware changes were made. The only change made was the OS. I installed Vegas 5.0 and now every time I try to start Vegas I get this error:
"An error occurred starting Vegas. The system is low on memory. You may be able to reduce memory usage by closing other applications."
I never once had this issue with the Windows 2000 OS. I then reformatted my drive again and reinstalled Windows XP and all updates. This time I installed Vegas before any other software. I then tried to run Vegas with no other applications running or installed for that matter. I keep getting the same error. As a test, I installed Vegas on another PC I own. This PC has Windows XP with the same updates. I have no problem running Vegas on that PC however I do not want to use that PC because all my hard drives (5 total) containing all my media are on my main PC. I really need some help getting Vegas running again on my main PC. Vegas is my only video editing software and I am currently in the middle of a project that requires Vegas. I appreciate any help you can give me. Please contact me as soon as possible. Thank you very much.
