Kellyo Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 I just got the Roxio 8 program and I'm having difficulty previewing anything. I have figured out how to add photos and music and have read the tutorial. Why can't I preview it? Do I need to upgrade my video card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it would be a good idea to tell us what program, in the suite, you are using. Then, list your system specs, similar to how I have mine listed in my signature.

Kellyo Posted May 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Thanks for your patience! I'm trying to create a slideshow w/ edited tracks (I've figured out the sound editor just fine!) . Whether I use VideoWave OR the Slideshow Assistant, I cannot preview what I've done. It just hangs or shows a black box. I can play the audio -- but no slideshow. I downloaded the DirectX video driver upgrade this morning, but still no luck. My computer is: HP w/ 3200 AMD Anthion XP Processor 512 MB PC2700 DDR memory 160 GB 7200 RPM Ultra DMA hard drive DVD & RW/CD-RW 8x DVD + R/RW drive w/ CD writer capabilities CD-ROM Drive 48x max speed Integrated graphics w/ 64MB shared video memory Processor Speed 2.20 GHz 512 KB 1.2 Cache 400 MHz Front side bus 9-in-1 media card reader Thanks for any help!!!

Yes your problem is your Graphics adapter. being an onboard one, it probably doesn't meet the minimum specs. You could try looking for an updated driver for it. Or get an actual video card. If you listed what it is btw, someone may be able to give a better suggestoin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpabruce Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 With 64MB shared, that video chip won't work at all. You need to get a dedicated video card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
