Update on the above: the Crashing is back!! Big time. Sometimes it crashes while trying to open Premiere Pro 2014. Sometimes in the middle of rendering. Sometimes the instant I hit the Play button with the head in the middle of a sequence, which scrubs fine, back and forth, no problem, then when i hit play (spacebar) it instantly crashes.
Running in Safe mode seems to be OK. but of course there is no sound output available.
Too many hard drives? Too many long files? I can see stuttering or even freezing, but crashing? Pretty ridiculous, IMHO.
No, I am not running Yosemite. I heard that has serious problems.
All solutions are welcome.
Soon, FCPX will be fully featured, and I will chuck this Adobe nonsense! I just want to get through this one project somehow.
