I sort of knew you were going to say Adobe and that the threading issue would come
up. Just had not had time to post back. It is complicated to say the least and
trying to sort it out takes a fairly high level of experience/tech knowledge to trouble
shoot the problems that it can cause. It is consiquently a programming issue more
to do with third party programs than with the OP system unfortunatly. Don't know
if this will help or if you can follow it or not but it may shed some light on the
threading issue. Was written for 2000 but applies to XP as well. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000pro/reskit/part6/proch29.asp
Judging by your system specs, you have a loaded system and then some. Unfortunatly
this can be part of the problem even for an SMP machine. I have found that a machine
which has had all but the necessary hardware and software removed, will do faster
rendering and make use of the processing power better. I have my machines connected
by a 10-100-1000 network so that finished files can be transfered to other machines
when the rendering is done. I hate to say it but no one has as of yet made and affordable
all-in-one machine to handle these types of operations. :-( Your MB isn't one of
the MB's that have had any known issues, at least that I can find so far. Will keep
checking though. Also checking on some resources that can explain the threading
issue a little better. C K
