    Sony Vegas Problem

    Several things can cause Vegas to go glitchy. How much RAM do you have, and what is your operating system? Also, what version of Vegas are you using? Are there any strange things that happen before things start to go haywire?

    Is there any free antivirus that can be made to update automatically two times a day?

    can't see youtube video
