    Hey there i just got Adobe Premiere Elements and every time i run it to burn a dvd of video clips during the encoding process it causes the whole system to freeze, the temps for the processor usually are between 127-131 degrees Fahrenheit according RM Clock. is this still a safe temp and i cleaned the fan, anybody else have any experience with this adobe program.

    55 C is an average temp and nothing to worry about. I wouldn't worry until it approaches 90c-100c or 194F - 212F.

    Sorry to hear you are having trouble with your machine. As other members stated, system's temperature are normal. Does it happen with this particular program only? gaming? Any errors after you restart the system? You may check in Event Viewer for any errors, feel free to send me a PM.

    i think i've narrowed it down to this program just being a memory hog big time if i encode just one file at a time the program consumes 890,000k of memory alone so when i try to do four at the same time i get my resulting system freeze

    As long as you don't have any apps open with bad memory leaks, an upgrade to 4 gigs should make it silky smooth.
