Everytime I import any kind of footage it plays delayed. not that the audio is off, that I can tell. but the whole thing plays delayed. kind of like when you play a vid on youtube thats not all the way loaded yet. But if I play it through windows its fine. I can play it in windows movie maker just fine, but any footage I play in Vegas is delayed. I've only had the program for a month or so and am a novice at video editing, so any help is much appreciated. thanks in advance.

Sorry, I'm not sure what "any kind" of video is. Could you be a bit more specific?
By delayed, do mean it is slow to start, or that it skips or stalls? Again, I'm not quite sure what you mean.

I mean any type of file I import, like mp4 and etc. and it skips.

I do know what mp4 means, but not etc. so pick an mp4 file and use MediaInfo to discover and post the relevant details about the file. That will get us a lot closer to being able to answer your question. Also include your system information and your Project settings. There is some general info in this thread to help get you started:
