Computer Question ?!?!

What's up guys i was editing a video in Sony Vegas Pro 8 and all of a sudden my fan in my computer goes mental and Sony Vegas starts to lag ..
So i Ctrl + Alt + Del opened up task manager > Performance and seen Sony Vegas was using 100% CPU and 1.42GB of memory. My question is my computer never used to lag out with Sony Vegas max CPU i would use would of been 65% even when rendering in 1280x720 29.970 FPS, now all of a suddden poof 100% CPU

yes sony vegas is a cpu hog and ram hog if u want it to not lag i would recmond updating to a dual core cpu instead of a single core

Can also click on the processes tab and sort it by CPU usage and you should see something using the cpu more than others

Hi,Dose this match your pc spec:AMD Athlonâ„¢ 64 LE 1640 Processor,
1024MB RAM,160GB hard drive
To check your motherboard open the case and see if there is a number on the motherboard,then google to see if you can get a dual core.:machinegunner:
