All:

Here are the specs of the new computer that I'm looking at buying. Also thinking about EMC 10. Please let me know if you think this would be a good purchase for using Roxio for editing video. I don't understand much about video cards, etc, and I will really appreciate the help!

You won't have any problems running any version of EMC on that system.  Even with a new system, I suggest you make sure you have the latest drivers for your video card.  Nvidia updates them regularly.

This is a double post by the OP.  He is running Vista, so he won't be able to run EMC 7 or 8, which he is currently running.

He posted this same post in the EMC 8 forums.
