Im running win xp with 1.4MHZ and 512 RAM

I am converting ASFs in the 100MB range

I have pulled the audio with VirtualDub.

TMPEGenc encodes them to VCD MPG at real time which is great

BUT

I seem to have to try 2 or 3 times before it goes all the way to 100% without locking up the computer.

I am not running any programs while encoding and my screensavers are off and my System components are set to NEVER turn off.

Any other ideas?

Its no fun to wait an HOUR and be at 94% and have it freeze up. UGGGGHHH

Ideas?

Thanks
