    I've had Sony Vegas 7.0 for years, probably something like 5 years, and it's been working without any kinds of problems all that time.
    Well, now there's a massive problem.

    I've been doing one huge project for the last 11 weeks. It has hundreds of videos and pictures in it, so the program has been working kinda slowly but it doesn't matter when it's working. But now it's not.

    For the last few days I've been fighting with it, and now I've almost gave up. It's too much to handle, seriously. I got few parts of the video saved, but there's one part at the end of the film that I've been doing for weeks, and it's the biggest part of the film with 8-10 videos on top of each other etc, and that's my problem now. I got everything else rendered, that was a miracle itself, but then the last part always fails/crashes. There's the same error-message that keeps coming every time I open the project or part of it. I do have it in smaller pieces, and as a one big one, and I've been trying to render the parts as .wmv so I can get them added together in another program, everything else is rendered but the last part which is the most important.. So I'm in troubles. What can I do?
    How on earth is it possible that it started to freak out right now? I mean, it has been almost as big the entire 11 weeks, and it's been working just fine. And now, when the premiere of the film was yesterday (kinda had to do a little postponing..), it fails to work with me at all.

    Yes, I've installed the program again, 3 times in 3 days. I even tried to install it to another computer, but the same result with it. Now I'm downloading the trial of Vegas 9.0, I'm hoping it'll work little better and I'll get my last piece of it saved.
    But if that's not helping either, I really really really need help.

    I thought I'm pretty nerd myself, I've fixed every other problems that I've ever had with my computer, but this was just too much. Nothing helps. And it can't be a problem with the memory, because yesterday I deleted like half of the programs I had in this when I was doing it and it was working well. And also, because the same problem is in the other computer too, and that one is new computer and it definitely has enough memory..

    I was thinking that maybe it's some of the videos in the film that is doing it, but how on earth am I supposed to know which one it is when there's over 300 of them. And because there's nothing new added in the last few days, everything that there is now was there also before when it was working.

    I'm in serious problems if I can't get the last piece saved or the program working, so please, if you know ANYTHING that could help, tell me.

    Here's the error messages I'm getting. The first one says simply:

    "An error occurred during the current operation,
    An exception has occurred."

    and the information of it says:

    So, what can I do?
    I'll let you know if the Vegas 9.0 helps me, but I'm little worried about it too.. And even if it works, I would really like to know what on earth happened to this one, because I'm totally confused.

    Thank you!

    Contact Sony support, since the error is in one of their programs.
