Please fill in your systems specs in your profile and post a screen grab to show us what you mean.
In one of the 'stickies' at the head of this forum, you can see how to post pictures here.

Can't tell anything from the screengrabs. All looks normal.
It may have something to do with the Fraps Decompressor.
What format is your video file??

Don't think that is the problem. When I restarted my computer everything was working again and after having to render it three times I finally have the full video as I wanted it with no black screens. But it's really weird.

Avi files in Vegas are notorious for turning black. This has been a perennial problem. If they turn black, you can usually close the project, re-open and they will reappear. Before rendering , always save your project, close it, re-open and then render.

How are you capturing those clips, and what is the "Media Info" on them? I would capture clips, and then convert the clips to something like XDCAM-EX.MXF, or Cineform-Low.AVI. You will probably have a will probably have a lot less issues with editing your material. Most of the time I have seen issues like that has been while trying to use Fraps or Lagarith codecs.


You may also want to run the following on your machine and verify a few things, generally in this order:

"chkdsk /f" from a command prompt, choose yes on next reboot. Reboot

Apply all windows updates, including any .NET updates.

Make sure GPU driver is latest.

Uninstall any old applications or utilities no longer used.

Run CCleaner Registry cleaner and repair issues. Reboot.

Run a Windows defender scan, and Malware Bytes scan, and repair issues found, reboot if issues found and re-run scans.

"dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" from an admin command line. You should get:
[==========================100.0%==========================]
The restore operation completed successfully.
The operation completed successfully.


sfc /scannow from an admin command prompt. Verify you get:
"Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."
repair any issues here. Reboot and re-run if issues repaired until you get the message above.

Make sure Vegas is running the latest version (build 453), reboot if upgrade is needed.

Verify Hardware temps are ok during playback and rendering with something like Speccy or another program like it. Repair clogged heat fins or cooling issues if high temps are present.
