Vegas 9.0b crashing. Access violation error

Mosant wrote on 11/8/2013, 9:25 PM
Hi there, I am having a problem opening a project that has been edited and prepared and close to ready to render. Vegas 9.0b keeps crashing every time I open the .vf file giving me the error message below. The media allis all found and imports correctly and the time line generates & all looks OK then the error message pops up. Once I click OK on that the program shuts down. Can you please advise how to fix the problem. I have already tried reinstalling the program and update to latest updates (which I was using). It is a large project but I have plenty of PC capacity. I had previously down loaded the trial version of Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 12.0 but did not purchase the upgrade. Could that be a reason? It should not be. I don't want to buy the upgrade really as I am thinking of moving to different software. Appreciate any help or ideas anyone has.

How many clips are you importing on the timeline?
Have you tried the VMS 12 trial?

I have quite a lot of clips in it along with music and overlays and text/credits. Is there a limit? however I don't think that should be the problem because was able to previously import them all and complete the edit and completely preview the final movie. When trying to render it crashed and ever since I have been getting the error.
I have tried trial version on VMS12 for a different project and it worked fine on this computer.

I bit the bullet and purchase the upgrade to VMS12 and I am still unable to render the movie. Now I get a different error when trying to render & burn to DVD suggesting the PC/laprtop is low on memory and to close other applications. However I have no other applications open and I have the right system specs. I also know that VMS12 does work on this system because I have edited a prior project in the trial version... If I try just to render and save to my hard drive I am getting the following error.... appreciate any help solving the issue... by the way I had the error on build 895 and now the latest build after updating today 1183.
