Sujet Service pack 2 and VDJ & computer freeze!!! + .mcg files

Ce topic est ancien et peut contenir des informations obselètes ou incorrectes.

Has anyone else had the same problem. Just had to re-install everything on my laptop, first time in about a year......... I let win update install everything, then installed service pack 2 for XP.

The result is that while i'm on VDJ or indeed just anytime on my laptop, the screen + sound would just stop. If i moved my mouse then it would re-start, after a while then the system would crash and freeze everything. I remember when I first started using VDJ, I thought I'd get my system upto date and then installed SP 2 and the same happened then. I then started from scratch and just loaded what I needed to do my job.

I've had no probs since until now........ I have just uninstalled service pack 2 and everything now seeem to be working fine.

Has anyone else had this problem or know why this happens????

PS. been with VDJ since v1.1 and can not imagine using anything else!!! it's the bee's knee's...........

ALSO, at mo i'm just coverting my files to mpg's as i'm using .mcg files from cavs. Would it be possible to get a decoder for VDJ so I can play .mcg files???

I have my PC with Windows Professional SP2 and I work with VDJ with out a problem.

If you uninstall VDJ and install SP2 after that. Reboot, install VDK again. Probe your computer, your sound card , video card (use a program that intensive uses this 2 factors; maybe a game) if your computer works fine, install VDJ. Try it.

Try what acw_dj says, besides, if installing VDJ after installing SP2 doesn't work, probe your computer with programs like 3D Mark (http://www.3dmark.com/) and also check DirectX (Start menu, then click on Run and type "dxdiag.exe" without the cuotes.

Don't forget to install the lastest direct X to your Windows! SP2 don't give you the DirectX 9 files used in VirtualDJ 3. DirectX 9.0c is another upgrade you should run after installing SP2.

acw_dj, DirectX9C comes already with SP2, at least with the TI developers pack which is around 270 MB I think

Thanks Alberto,

Oh boy... well I miss that, but when you update with out this 266MB file I'm not sure if install DirectX 9 automatically, cause DirectX ask for reboot and after you install SP2 only do one reboot... I have to check this.

It installs DirectX9.0c, but I think that Microsoft released a new redistributable pack of DirectX9.0c in February, so if you have problems, but initially, SP2 for TI developers comes with DirectX9c
