CLEAN start on Vegas??

Is there a way to do a "clean start" (sort of like a clean install) on Vegas.
It worked well until this am - now won't start past gpu accelleration.
I'm not using accelleration.
In fact I don't even have a video board (outside of the Intel) installed.
Everything has worked well on this computer for a year.
Today - horror.

Vic,
It's Ctl+Shift when you start up Vegas. It will reset all the preferences to default.

It's killing me Tom - two months of editing - rendering for final output for national tv campaign -
v12 won't get past the darn GPU insertion (don't have it - had it turned off - everything worked for the last two months, etc.)

Your CTRL/SHIFT absolutely brought me back to a menu with a reset to factory button, but even though the rest of the launch took longer (as it loaded stuff), when it got to the GPU - it closes.

I'm rendering on another computer, so I won't have to hang myself, but this is my main axe, and it worked yesterday.
I'd like to get it running again.

I also installed the latest update of v13 on this machine and it boots just fine. Then it crashes in weird ways on rendering (admittedly 103 video tracks aint nothing, but v12 handeled it all just fine.

Go figure...it's probably some system or machine glitch - well you know what I'm talkin' about.

Thanks for your help.

Vic,
I had a problem, where Vegas would not get past the splash screen - any release - 9, 10, 11, 12 & 13.

It took over a year to solve, but it finally came down to a plug-in where the v2 install left behind some remnant of v1. Did ANYTHING get installed on that system recently?

If you have the time, call me. It may be something simple. I'll send tel no privately.

I did via SONY.

Could be Windows' update or drivers' update, etc. that makes Vegas unstable.

Try check via Recovery>Open System Restore.
