I haven't been on the forum for a long time ..and wondering if anyone out there knows why when I export my project into another folder it all of a sudden gets to 88% and "Powerdirector has stopped working". My project is only 30 mins long and only contains images and no video..I have just updated my NVIDIA graphics card to version 295.73 and have 3022 patch..I am using Powerdirector 8...and never had any trouble exporting my projects before as i make many DVDs and always export my projects into other folders..I want to be able to bring this project up in future as it is a Family Tree DVD for my Family..Does anyone have any ideas why Powerdirector stops working when I export it????

Thanks
Pam

The only way you can move a project is to use the Pack Project Materials first before you move or change anything.

Project files do not contain the actual videos and photos. Just pointers to where those files are on the hard drive.

As to why PD is crashing, I can only guess, It may be that your project file is so complicated, that when PD can not find all the files, It just gives up.

Then again it might be Windows that is shutting PD down. Windows will close any program that produces too many errors.
