Files Corrupted on Timeline and Causing Crash--PE4

-

greetings all.

 

pe4 has been crash-happy on machine, specs of list:

 

cpu: intel core 2 duo @2.66ghz

ram: 4gb ddr2

os: win7 x64 service pack

graphics card: nvidia geforce gt 520 (2gb)

harddrive: 1tb (seagate, think...could western digital) 645gb free space

 

from threads i've read, i've seen nvidia cards can cause problems adobe software, part of general crash problem. driver latest (updated today, 7/3/13.)

 

anyway, i've begun encountering problem 33-minute-long animated film i've been editing in pe4. movie has lot of material on timeline because animated video clips split freeze frames in post-production sync footage dialog, , there bunch of short sound effect clips on top of plus music. total, have 2 video tracks , 8 audio tracks. published movie mpeg computer last night , afternoon, burned few dvds of finished project. when reached point 13 minutes film, speakers on tv emitted horrid screaching noise lasted 2 seconds. in film, .wmv clip playing ambient sound effects clip , series of 3 short, consecutive sound effects character knocking on wood box. (these audio clips in separate tracks , not part of .wmv file; added them separately.) thought perhaps tv speakers problem, computer speakers acted same way. next assumed glitch had occurred in media encoding , closed pe4, reopened, , burned new disk same result. checked .mpg file exported last night, , screach absent it.

 

i next tried examine specific spot in timeline, when scrolled , zoomed in level see <1 second long sound clips, program crashed without mentioning specific error. windows error reporting box popped , informed me "adobe pe4 has encountered problem , needs close." sceneline mode doesn't crash @ point, timeline does. thing can conclude somehow files on timeline got corrupted between last night , afternoon, since can't @ part of timeline without crash, can't replace clips @ area. overlooking silly here? appreciated. if haven't supplied needed information, i'm sorry; , i'll happy add it.

 

thanks,

andrew hild

how devide circle equal parts reggie,   depending on version, may able use free divide (length) script available here, setting number,   http://park12.wakwak.com/~shp/lc/et/en_aics_script.html   or may (smart guides friends):   1) use polar grid tool right size of circle, 0 concentric dividers , desired number of radial dividers, , ungroup; 2) extend radial dividers; 3) select circle , use scissors tool @ intersections (smart guides intersect ), may need select remaining parts underway.   or may (smart guides friends):   1) create vertical line through top , bottom (or left , right) anchor points line tool; 2) rotate copies @ relevant angles (to half number of cuts division); 3) select circle , use scissors tool @ intersections (smart guides intersect ), may need select remaining parts underway.
