I have made several videos before w/o problems.? Recently i added more FireWire ports, and external HDD, and a new gfx card to my comp.? Now when i start up my video editing program (adobe premiere) my computer is fine, but as soon as i click Capture, it gets all screwed up.? My CPU usage goes to 100% instantly and the comp becomes slower than molases in january!? The camera is plugged in via FireWire and is turned on.? I have several programs and i get the same result no matter which one i use... Like i said i have done this many times on this exact comp before w/o any problems... Any ideas?

thanx

Have you upgraged your psu before addding all those things? Or what size is your psu at the moment?

I have a AMD Athlon XP 2500+ 1.83 GHz, 1.0 GB of RAM

-I noticed that my CPU usage is at 100% even when i am just playin my little online rpg, so i fear it may be time for an upgrade, if this is the case i have some questions

ask away. But do you know what power rating your power supply is?

Actually when i was lookin at my Device Manger i notived something odd.. to of my devices dont have any drivers installed for them..could this be related to my problem? and which drivers do i need, i tried it on my own, and i mucked things up bad and had to do a restore....

which 2 devises are they? And Is thre a yellow exclamation mark next to them. If you want to do this the easy way to see if it works. Right click on the device and click check for hardware changes. If it comes up with somthing Uninstall it and reboot. Windows should install it upon reboot most of the time.

omg im a idiot lol... i had this screenie rdy, and forgot to attach it...

they appear to have somethign to do w/ my mobo
