external preview and print-to-tape don´t work

When printing to tape or sending the preview to an external monitor via the 1394 the video is always interrupted (I get a blue screen on the camcorder display)

What I did until now:

The footage I tried was captured with vegas (I tried some older stuff that was captured with premiere and a pinnacle dv300 - with the same results as above)
My system: Win2000pro, 512mb RAM, directx 9.0a, 1394 OHCI (TI chipset), Camcorder Canon XL-1 (PAL, I tried interlaced and progressive footage)

1.
Uninstalled the pinnacle dv300 and cleaned the registry of all remains of the pinnacle dv300

2.
updated my BIOS

3.
checked and reinstalled driver for the 1394 card (TI chipset) and the Microsoft DV driver

4.
checked the IRQ settings, all these are on the same IRQ:

IRQ 11 SAPPHIRE RADEON 9000 ATLANTIS PRO
IRQ 11 VIA AC'97 Audio Controller (WDM)
IRQ 11 SiI PCI-0680 ATA/133 Controller
IRQ 11 Texas Instruments OHCI-konformer IEEE-1394-Hostcontroller
IRQ 11 Realtek RTL8029(AS)-basierter PCI Ethernetadapter

Could there be any conflicts?

Here is all of them: Which ones can I change, I am really no expert in these things..? Sorry for the german words, but I guess they are selfexplanatory ;-)

9 Microsoft ACPI-konformes System
11 SAPPHIRE RADEON 9000 ATLANTIS PRO
11 VIA AC'97 Audio Controller (WDM)
11 SiI PCI-0680 ATA/133 Controller
11 Texas Instruments OHCI-konformer IEEE-1394-Hostcontroller
11 Realtek RTL8029(AS)-basierter PCI Ethernetadapter
14 Primärer IDE-Kanal
15 Sekundärer IDE-Kanal
8 System CMOS/Echtzeituhr
13 Numerischer Coprozessor
6 Standard-Diskettenlaufwerkcontroller
4 Kommunikationsanschluss (COM1)
3 Kommunikationsanschluss (COM2)
12 Windows PS/2 Port mouse
1 Standardtastatur (101/102 Tasten) oder Microsoft Natural Keyboard (PS/2)

5. I read the Vegas manual, checked this forum, the faq, the articles on this site and did everything that was recommended, but it still does not work.

I really hope somebody can help me... I purchased Vegas only yesterday, because I was happy with the demo... and now I cannot even get my footage out of the computer.

Best regards, Peter

Hi ... maybe this could help u
Did u print to tape ure file direct from u're camcorder by playing it from time line ? or did u print to tape by click the tool bar: tool > print to tape .
The last is the right way ...
hmm ... i guest that: after u captured from the camcorder than u edit it, and preview it on external monitor ... after u finished than u directly playback from the timeline,u're camcorder show it and push the record button ure cam ... SO if like that, i guest it didn't work ...
but i didn't know the real situation there ... I used VV 3.0 and have no error till now ...

Hi massive... I tried both and none of the methods work, not even the preview on device in the video capture tool.

I updated the BIOS again, but I cannot change the IRQs as Win2000 uses ACPI which assigns the interupts automatically, so I cannot change them in the hardware properties...

Never experienced so much start-up trouble..

The problem seems to be all the devices you have on IRQ 11. If you're comfortable working inside your computer case you can sometimes trick Windows into assigning different IRQ's by just inserting the various cards in a different order. It may all be for nothing but maybe worth a shot. Before starting be sure you have all the install disks/CD's for each of your external cards. Remove ALL of them except for the video card. At this point all you want is your graphic card, a mouse/trackball and your keyboard. A very basic setup.

Now reboot Windows. If stable start adding back the cards one at a time, confirm your system is stable then add another one. Put the firewire card in early and it should get an IRQ lower than eleven. You really have an awful lot of stuff in one computer. Too much probably. Do you really use all the stuff you have installed hardware wise?
