Hey guys, I have a i7 quad core processor with 8 gigs of ram. Ive been editing with vegas pro 10 for months with no problem. Sometime within the last 3 days, Vegas has gotten dramatically slower. Before hand I could have smooth preview playback at half res, now it is laggy and choppy even at a quarter playback. Rendering out a video which would take 15 minutes before now takes over an hour. It's like I lost processing power or something? I have tried restarting my computer, closing all other apps, I only had a system restore back to like 2 days, I'm not sure if the problem started happening then or not. Even with a new project and playing one single clip, with no effects has laggy playback. I don't know what happened. Does anyone have any suggestions?
 
Could be a number of things, but you might as well eliminate it being a virus.

Download Malwarebytes and Spybot.
 
Thanks for your response, I think I figured out what it was. I noticed that now, whenever adding a new video track in vegas, it automatically is created with 3 track fx, same for the audio tracks. I never added these it just pops up automatically that way when the new track is created. Is there a default setting somewhere I accidently turned on? Anyone know how to fix that?
 
For the benefit of anyone with similar problems in the future who is searching here looking for answers, what was your solution?
