Installing Vegas 3 demo...

Will installing the VV3 demo version with VF 2.0 already installed, cause any problems?? I'm wanting to check out the demo before I upgrade because of the one main problem I'm having with VF 2.0. But I don't want that to cause even more problems with VF..anyone else done this?

Thanx!

You should have no problems installing the VV3 demo.

1. Does "no problems" mean that I can have both VF2 and VV3 installed separately on my PC without any cross interference?

2. Also, I ordered VV3 online by credit card and know that delivery won't be made until after Dec 15. Later on I D/L'd the VV3 demo off the web site. If I choose not to wait until the ordered disks appear in my mailbox, can I install and run the demo version now and register (since I've already paid by Credit Card) without complicating matters and without paying again?

I read an earlier post about installing the vv3 demo, and from what is discussed, it says we should have no problems installing vv3 to its own directory. If its installed into the vf2 directory, it will cause problems. So I'm gonna try it tonite (fingers crossed)...

Yes I have registrad the demo.

After some initial problems trying to enter numbers associated with VFF2.00, I entered the registration number for VF1.00 and all went well.

I have the VV3 demo up and running in its own directory. No conflicts, so far, with VF2.

Also, I noticed that the 300+ page manual for VV3 is much better and more detailed than the VF2 manual. I learned much about VF2 from it. I recommend you D/L the VV3 manual, even if you plan to stay with VF2.
