I just purchased this device and started converting video with Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 8 and my PC will crash to the point that I need to power down. I also tried using movie maker and the same thing happens. Any suggestions?

ADVC-55 problem
I tried capturing with windows movie maker and had the same problem. I problem usually happens with in 2-3 minutes of capturing the video. I have noticed that both my IEEE 1394 ports are setup as networks under my network connections. I have no idea if this is a problem.Comment

Yes, definitely Disable the 1394 Network Adapter(s).
Do you have more than one 1394 controller?
And... What OS (and Service Pack) are you running?Comment

I just asked because you said earlier that both your 1394 ports were set up with 1394 Networking. Usually there's only one 1394 Networking adapter per-controller.

Hmm... Unfortunately it sounds like your FireWire subsystem is really messed up.
Maybe try disabling the FireWire on your sound card and see if the system gets less confused.Comment

I think I may have this fixed. I will have to try to capture video this evening.
I went and re-installed the drivers for the firewire and ran msconfig and removed anything that was extra, like usbtip.exe and others.
Then this morning I opened movie maker and watched the video for about 1.5 hrs and it did not crash.
So it looks like some extra programs that were running in the background were giving me grief. I will see what happens tonight. If this does not work I may have to resort to re-installing windows XP so that there is no extra crap from Pinnacle.Comment
