I read an article saying it might be because a file or clip is corrupted and to move the clip but I have no idea which clip it is w out being able to open the project.

I tried opening the project using some older versions I saved, but they are stalling out at 42 percent too.

I updated my drivers but still no luck.

I found this article here:

Wow - this really has me worried.

What can I do?
