    What is wrong with my Sony Vegas?

    So after looking at how terrible YouTube rendered my recent video, went onto Vegas to check if I could tweak some settings
    Think, maybe if I render at higher than 1080, it'll force the original option on YouTube and will therefore allow me to use a better bit rate
    I used the WMV setting, normally stick to MP4

    Press render, then this happens to the preview screen and the end render is exactly the same Capture.PNG

    I was meaning to roll back to Windows 7 for no real reason, my installation of 8 was getting slow, too much e installed. Reinstall Vegas and such, record another 3-5min video, open it up in Vegas and the exact same thing.

    At first I just thought it was the crap in my 8 installation, but this is happening on a 2 hour old installation of Windows. There can be nothing wrong with this version of Windows or Vegas, yet the problem is still here.

    T̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶p̶r̶o̶b̶l̶e̶m̶ ̶d̶o̶e̶s̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶o̶c̶c̶u̶r̶ ̶w̶h̶e̶n̶ ̶I̶ ̶a̶m̶ ̶w̶o̶r̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶a̶l̶r̶e̶a̶d̶y̶ ̶r̶e̶n̶d̶e̶r̶e̶d̶ ̶M̶P̶4̶ ̶v̶i̶d̶e̶o̶ ̶f̶i̶l̶e̶s̶,̶ ̶j̶u̶s̶t̶ ̶r̶a̶w̶ ̶A̶V̶I̶ It happens regardless of what file I am working with originally

    If any of you could give me a hand, it would be greatly appreciated, I tried googling around, but don't really know how to word the problem I have

    (Recording using MSI Afterburner)

    no idea what could be causing that as ive never used afterburner to record.
    i couldnt get along with vegas at all for my digital video camera so am using cyberlink power director which has the fastest 64bit rendering available.
    a 5 minute clip at full 1080 hd takes about 6-10 seconds.

    doesnt help your above problem but might be worth trying the trial out to compare PowerDirector 11 Ultra Free Trial Download | CyberLink

    Turns out it was just The 13.8 Drivers

    I didn't think it was going to be those at I have had those installed for a day and not a problem, but that would be because I never went to render something until now, which must've engaged something for it all to go to .

    Anyway, thanks! I would move onto another software, but being so fluent with Vegas, don't really see a point to.
