Please give me a hint.
Just got this brand new computer just for Vegas.
(run Vegas 9c on the old)
win 7/64 professional
Mobo Gigabyte GA-x58A UD3R
Intel core i7 930 2,8 GHz
RAM 6 GB DDR3 (room for 24 GB)
Nvidia GeForce GT 240
80GB intel x25 G2 SSD systemdisk
4x1TB SATAII 7200 rpm
VGA,HDMI,DVI,USB 2&3,Fw400

Nothing is installed yet.
I wonder if I shall install Vegas 9e/64 directly
or 9c first (never downloaded 9d)
and then update to 9e?
Thanks in advance!

If you want to use both 64 and 32 bit version (32 for the not 64bit plugins) but want to use the 64bit as the default (when you dblclick a .veg) then inst 9.0e 32 bit first and thereafter 9.0e 64 bit.
Else just inst 9.0e 64 bit directly.

Thanks for answer!
I read in another thread that you could get activationproblems
with a clean install of 9e.Therefore i thought that installing 9c first and then update to 9d would be better but I guess i have to try to
install 9e directly and see what happens.

No - on the contrary - one of the older versions had a prob. so that the update to next version required a reactivation.
No big deal, however, to copy and paste the serial number and press return :- ))
