  The clips I have are HD and .mp3. MTS files.

  In the latest version of Premiere Pro, it is possible to change the settings for the sequence.

  You know what settings are best knowing what you are doing.  (Personally I'm fan of formal education for this.)  I know that sounds sarcastic, but, there is no right answer to the question whose parameters are the best.  There are many variables here, then... you really need to know what you're doing.

• How can I know what that found Windows memory diagnostic?

  There is a small box that says.

  "your computer has a memory problem" "memory problems can cause the computer lose information or stop working." To identify and fix the problem contact the manufacturer of the computer "."

  Y at - it somewhere I can look and see what she got?

  I had all kinds of problems such as, blue screen memory dump, google chrome aw snap crash a lot, I was playing a game and it crashed to the desktop, so I couldn't run all the programs with reformulating them the computer, the computer no longer meets the Middle Windows up to date.

  When these problems started I thought ok I have this Windows 7-64 bit running for 3 years so I have re installed every thing and the same thing happened, I did it again but this time I used my XP disk to do the long format, it took 6 hours to do the 2 to hard drive if there are viruses that should have killed them and the reader should be as close to new as I can get it, but I still have the same problems.

  I ran scan disk, no problem, right now my CPU usage is 6%, RAM is 1.78 GB used out of 8 GB on the Task Manager.

  My computer performance scores are

  Processor 7.2

  7.4 RAM memory

  Chart 7.4

  It says I have a memory problem, but I've never seen more than about 2.8 GB of RAM being used I think that my motherboard is wrong something to do with the LAN of the jury party because all the problems seem to have something to do with the internet, but I would like to know what she has in case it's the hard drive and not the Mo before as I have spend a lot of money on the bad parts.

  I have try ed out the RAM and put back in, run the test, but did not so bad yet lucky, so I took the RAM on another PC and TA-DA! She has passed the test and everything works now no more of accidents.

  It would have been nice if she was 'Diagnostic memory Windows (RAM)' instead of memory diagnostic Windows user so first like me knows just what memory it is testing, I found by chance and didn't know what it was.

  So if your browser blocks a lot especially google chrome "AW snap" crash and accident of programs on desktop to run this tool, it could be your RAM.

  I hope this may help others.

  Hello

  This is not an indication of malware. Could be those are placed on the

  If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
  scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
  resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
  cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
  extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

• Can I upgrade to vista without deleting my xp programs and files?

  upgrade

  Can I upgrade to vista without deleting my xp programs and files? I don't want to lose my programs/files downloaded, but I don't want to argue with remove them and reinstall later

  Yes, you can perform an upgrade "On the spot" and all your personal data and software applications will be available in Vista (provided that they are compatible Vista).

  As always, you should create a backup Image in XP before you begin the upgrade, just in case. Also check that you still have your XP product key. If this isn't the case, then use one of the below product key finders.

  Hi Apmech9,

  1. don't you restore the computer to factory settings?

  If you restore the computer to its factory settings, you will then get in touch with the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

• I have problems keeping records and files of the administrator and the user separate in my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6700) under Windows Vista Home Premium.

  I have problems separating records and files of the administrator and the user. My computer is a laptop (HP Pavilion dv6700), used as a home computer only by myself, I like to keep the two distinct roles, but am unable to as Vista seems to be considered as one and the same. This scenario has arisen as follows:

  Initially, when I bought the laptop - approx. 18 months back - Windows Vista Home Premium was preinstalled, with the name 'Administrator' as an administrator. To customize the operating system and to use safely, I installed a user 'Renault', as a Standard account user.

  After awhile, I changed the name of the Director of "Renault", for reasons I have can not remember now. This caused Vista to combine folders and files of the two "users" in one, I found difficult to deal with, that I could not operate my laptop as just a Standard user, but is still considered the "administrator." On the one hand, this greatly increased spam in my email accounts. So I tried to reset the name of the administrator as 'Administrator' itself and keep my user name as "Renault", as originally the case.  But Vista me has failed to create a new user under the name "Administrator". So I created a new user under the name "System administrator", with administrative privileges. This has been accepted by Vista.

  But I forgot to change the user account for 'Renault', on the Standard account, so there was BOTH administrator accounts at the same time on my laptop! I realized that now only. The net result was that all the files that I created under the system administrator user were still being displayed under the user account of Renault. A few days back, I realized this and tried to separate the files correctly, but it has not been possible. No matter what I copied the account of the user in the files under the system administrator account, the files have been copied on account of the user himself.

  I tried to fix this by changing the name of the user account in something very different, AND as a Standard user. but this also does not work, as all folders and files under the administrator account system shows it as being under the user account of "Renault" only!

  Then, I deleted the user 'Renault' from the list of the user, but he was not yet of any help. Whenever I tried to create a new file under the system administrator, Vista responds with the message, "C:\user\Rajaram folder is not present. Will I create a new? ", which defeat the same purpose of my tent to isolate the administrator account and the user account.
  
  SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE WITH A SOLUTION, - OTHER THAN REFORMATTING MY C:\ DISK AND REINSTALL VISTA AGAIN - TO GET OUT OF THIS MESS, IT SEEMS TO ME YOU HAVE CREATED AND HELP ME TO HAVE AN ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT AND OTHER UNIQUE STANDARD USER ACCOUNTS PROPERLY ISOLATED.

  I would be always grateful for a quick and helpful response.
  Thanks in advance.

  -RAJARAM77
   
  Thanks for your reply. It was very helpful / sorry your proposed solution has not solved my problem. Kind regards. -Rajaram77

  Better to delete the user account except the one that was built in the administrator account that you renamed. Before this backup all your data files of these user accounts.
  Then rename the buil into account administrator as 'administrator '. Then you create another administrator account and use it and never the user built in Administrator account and leave it alone.

• How can you know what drivers and programs are essential and those that can be deleted without harming my computer?

  Original title: completely clueless

  I'm totally clueless when it comes to computers, but I try very hard to learn. I am using the help section a LOT, but I can't seem to find an answer to the only thing that makes me crazy. How can you know what drivers and programs are essential and those that can be deleted without harming my computer? I have a very basic net accountant I learn on before I screw up a portable more expensive and I do a cleaning on my C and D drives to improve performance because it runs so slow but it tells me I have the drivers who slow down Windows. I would greatky appreciate any assistance from someone who has the patience of a saint and is willing to take the time to explain it to me, in terms laymans. Thanks in advance

  Drivers: you should know what you bought (in your machine) and what * you * want out of it.  If you want stability and things work properly - let alone the drivers.  If you want more performance check (and other games) in the drivers of motherboard chipset and video network from the manufacturers Web site... For more stability stick with the OEM website (HP, Dell, Lenovo - the assembler of the whole machine) and slightly more performance/push the limits (even if they want to work too - so still some stability) - access to websites of its components manufacturer.

  With regard to the programs: you can decide what you use and do not use.  If you are not sure, look it up (Google) or ask.
