I have a very fast Windows 10 PC with 16 gb of RAM. When I monitor memory usage and CPU usage with Power Director 16 running, it never approaches fifty percent. It usually runs around 30%, yet Power Director freezes more and more as I go beyond a thirty minute project. When I save, the save window freezes at 100% then shows "not responding" for twenty seconds before finishing.

It would help members to help you if you posted a copy of your PCs DxDiag file.

Also, the hard disk you are writing to, does it have plenty of space?

Thanks for the reply. I posted the first part of the DxDiag file. Is that what you asked me to do? My hard drive is actually a SSD drive with over 50 GB of free space.

Same problem here so following this thread. The biggest problem with editing a project longer than 30 minutes is that the audio and video will not stat synched and the video is very very choppy
