worked few hours on short video, approx. 15 min, did nothing different than in the past, but during rendering, a screen came up - said my movie studio stopped working- asked me what i was performing at stop. ended up hitting X at top and it closed- opened up, told me shut down wrong(want restore?) hit yes and started coming back- then saw same error screen, this time typed in "rendering"- hit ok or send? then it closed down/ i opened back up and GONE. Saved it and named it before start to render, but its gone??? i'm really really green using computers, but after a bunch of cool videos so far, i thought i was on top of it, Just dont know what happened. Using vms hd platinum 10/production suite. been doing this 3 months, new computer, no probs yet, till this. any feedback?

How much free space is on your C drive? When did you last clear off the tmp files and defragment your drive?

Are you editing to a second or external drive or doing all of your work on your C drive?

When you used to be able to work on your computer but suddenly can't, it's often an indication that the drive needs some basic maintenance and cleaning.
